Question
disableEpochDateTime set to true in 7.1.6?
we are using 7.1.6 version and have problem with date properties setting to 01/01/1970.
Can we use disableEpochDateTime set to true to change that behavior in 7.1.6. I see below articles refer 7.1.8 and 7.1.9

Set the following Dynamic System settings to “true” to tell Pega to change the default behavior of putting the epoch date leaving it blank.

Hello Shashikala,
Thanks for posting your query in PSC :)
disableEpochDateTime is applicable only for the integration layer which relies on following api internally - com.pega.pegarules.pub.util.PRDateFormat.formatXSDDateTime(Date).
In Pega 7.1.6, check for the DSS disableEpochDateTime is not present. Hence, only enabling this setting will not help.
Since this is fixed in higher versions, would you/business consider upgrading to latest version of Pega 7.4( Refer help content) .
(OR)
Raise Support Request(SR) requesting a patch.
I hope this helps.
