Did anyone find a solution for the Octels date reverting back to 1984. We had the same thing happen to our system. Any information would be appreciated.

Thanks
 
We are a clustered system on software level 3.31.70-3.

 
Nothing can be done with the clustered systems. The field only counts up so high at then it reverts back to 1 1 1984. You can look to see what year matches the same day/date as 2011 and set it to that date but unless you have the source code and a programmer you are out of luck.


I know lots of companies that just roll the date to a year that matches and no one knows the difference.

If it was not clustered then it would work till 2015.

Thanks Ken, I was afraid of that...
We have already converted back to a year that matches the day.
