I have an app which imports CSV files from another system. The source system stores date/times in local format BST/GMT. When the CSV flat file importer brings the date into Mendix it believes its UTC already, note it does not convert it to UTC, it just assumes it is UTC. The attribute that it is importing to in Mendix is ‘localised’ but because it thinks the date/time is already UTC when it is presented in the front end it shows as 1 hour ahead in BST. i.e. 27/09/2020 09:00 BST imported into Mendix becomes 27/09/2020 09:00 UTC when it should be 27/09/2020 08:00 UTC. This causes me issues down the time where I want to export date in BST or UTC as the relevant formatdatetime functions are not working off the correct baseline. Any ideas how I can resolve this problem?
