Flexsim identifies below date and time for order generation as string how to convert below data as date and time.

To convert a string representation of a date and time you can use the DateTime constructor.

To get the simulation time you can subtract the model start time from that value and then convert that value to your model units. For example:

string timestamp = "03-04-2023 12:16";
DateTime dateTime = DateTime(timestamp, "%m-%d-%Y %H:%M");
DateTime modelTime =  dateTime - Model.startDateTime;
return modelTime.totalSeconds;
5 |100000
