If I have a date- type  attribute in the writer feature type (an Oracle SDE featuer class) and I want to set it to the machine's system time. What is the simplest way to do it? A search on the FMEpedia shows  several different approaches, but there should be a very simple way to do this simple function.

Use the timestamper?
I guess I misunderstood the timerstamper. Yes just simply using it to add a time stamp attribute with the default "FME Date/Time (^Y^m^d^H^M^S)" will add the system time attribute to to the connection flow and therefore can set the UPDATE_DATE to the Oracle SDE feature class attribute.
