SQL RAND() keyword

Hi,

do anyone know if the SQL RAND() keyword can be configured to use a specific seed or stream?
Or, otherwise, is known which seed use this keyword?

Thanks.

I noticed that RAND() behaves like `uniform(0, 1)`:

(FlexSim 20.0.10)

FlexSim 21.0.2 results are similar, but the seed seems to be different:



So apparently RAND() uses stream 0.
