I'm not familiar with Oracle or PostgreSQL, but I know that a Timestamp data type remains constant
regardless of the time zone. In other words, the time zone portion of the data is optional.
Maybe there is a function in PostgreSQL that will convert the field to a plain Timestamp. You could
use that function to export the data to another table.

To add on that -
I have modified the fieldtypeoracle.xml file to change the mapping for
"date-time " as
<field-type-def type="date-time" sql-type="TIMESTAMP WITH TIME ZONE"
java-type="java.sql.Timestamp"></field-type-def>
This is required as we are migrating our existing data (from PostgreSQL)
which contains many of the fields as TIMESTAMPTZ.
Also if anybody can suggest a way to get rid of the timezone part while
migrating to Oracle (of-course maintaining the accuracy in date).
Thanks..

Error was: java.sql.SQLException: ORA-02329: column of datatype

This is happening for other entities also which have a timestamp field
as part of their keys.
Any help would be appreciated.
