I believe $TIMESTAMP$ is the transaction start time (which on large escalations 
can be off as the transaction grows)

Change over to using $SERVERTIMESTAMP$ (which should be the current date and 
time from the server)

Subject: Escalations - question over create time and timestamps

I have an escalation that is almost working fine, but appears to be generating 
some inconsistent date/time values.

Within the escalation, it has a push fields creating an audit record of an sla 
failure, and putting $timestamp$ in an event date time field.

The problem appears to be that the system generated create date, that i would 
normally assume to be close to the timestamp value, very definitely isn't. 
We're seeing some large discrepancies.

For example :
create date 6/6/2011 at 19.23:29
timestamp 6/6/2011 at 19.12:55

any suggestions as to what could be causing such a large discrepancy in what 
should be identical values?
