IBM MDM Component level getParty but as per requesterTimeZone

We have existing code to retrieve user detail by component level getPetrson call. Perhaps the last developer did component level getPerson due to performance benefits.

But now I have requriement that all the date fields in the getPerson response must have dates in timezone as per the defined value in requesterTimeZone field.

I have 2 options

  1. Convert all component level getParty into controller level and set timezone. 2. Manually write codes to convert list of 20 - 25 date field values into a timezone defined in requesterTimeZone.

Which one is really performance benificial . is there a way at component level getPerson call to set requesterTimeZone as say IST or PST but the stored value in DB is by default GMT.

Solution

  • Finally I used the ObjectHierarchyMetadata.addHandler(BusinessObjectTimeZoneConverterHandler); & ObjectHierarchyMetadata.execute(anyBobj); to convert a anyBObj got using component level get call.
