System Time?

I handled an interesting support call last night.  The failing job had
an error because the target of a CPYF CRTFILE(*YES) already existed, the
job was trying to create a 'history' file with a filename derived from
job date/time.  The CPYF failed because the previous run of the job, 24
hours earlier had created the same file that this instance was trying to
create. 

The job is submitted by the built-in job scheduler; and scheduled for
submission at midnight.  I was surprised (shocked, actually) to see that
the job had an 'Entered system time' and 'Start time' of 00:00:01 on
August 15, but that the 'Job date' was August 14.  Anyone have any
explanation for this weirdness, for lack of a better term?

Thanks,

Joe
