The following describes the DateTime and Time values returned by a Load request from the CRM On Demand Connector.
For Web Services v1.0, the time value returned by the SOAP response is the same as what was entered or displayed on CRM On Demand; for example, a CRM On Demand Account record has Last Call Date = 3/30/2013 07:15 AM. The DateTime value returned by the Load request is the same - <LastCallDate>03/30/2013 07:15:00</LastCallDate>
For Web Services v2.0, the DateTime or Time returned is based on a timezone converted to UTC (offset = 0) value; for example, the same CRM On Demand Account record with Last Call Date = 3/30/2013 07:15 AM, might have a Load request return a different value like <LastCallDate>2013-03-30T12:15:00Z</LastCallDate> if the timezone is “(GMT-05:00) Eastern Time (US & Canada)”.
