<h3>Description</h3>
<p>ACC module allows setting datetime fields in UTC via <a href="http://kamailio.org/docs/modules/devel/modules/acc.html#acc.p.time_mode" rel="nofollow">time_mode param</a>.</p>
<p>However, this setting does not cause cdr entries to be saved in that format and I haven't found any equivalent parameter to achieve this.</p>
<h3>Troubleshooting</h3>
<p>Analyzing the code for MySQL database storage I have found that <a href="https://github.com/kamailio/kamailio/blob/master/src/lib/srdb1/db_ut.c#L256"><em>db_time2str_ex</em> function defined in <em>db_ut.c</em></a> uses localtime().</p>
<h3>Possible Solutions</h3>
<p>Changing localtime() to gmtime() cdrs are saved in UTC, but it would be desirable to add a new module param that makes this configurable.</p>

<p>Should I proceed and try to get a working PR to add this new modparam or there is currently a way to get this that I have missed (apart from setting system time to UTC)?</p>
<p>Thank you and regards,</p>
