Dvce_created_tstamp with future datetimes values

For engineers
1

Hi everyone,

What could be causing records with values from future datetimes in the column dvce_created_tstamp? I was looking at some data and found several records with values from a month from now. The collector_tstamp looks fine for those records by the way.

Thanks in advance.

Hi @pacuna,

The dvce_created_tstamp reflects the time on the device’s clock when the event was generated. If the user’s device clock is wrong, this can happen.

Here’s a post with some explanation on timestamps.

Best,
