I am curious. Why wouldn't this work?

c eval sysdate = %dec( %date() : *ymd )
c eval systime = %dec( %time() : *hms

Is there a better way to retrieve the system date and time than this, or
is this as good as any?
System date, not the job date.
D SYSYMD S 6 0
D SYSTIME S 6 0
/FREE
SYSYMD = %DEC(%SUBST(%CHAR(%TIMESTAMP:*ISO0):3:6):6:0);
SYSTIME = %DEC(%SUBST(%CHAR(%TIMESTAMP:*ISO0):9:6):6:0);
/END-FREE
