%Timestamp() will only return the first 3 numbers of the microsecond part,
the remaining positions are padded with *Zeros (even if you define your
timestamp field as Timestamp(12).
If you need a more exact timestamp you need to use the SQL specific
register
(as you already did)

Subject: %TIMESTAMP renders only milliseconds?
Hi there!
Sorry for asking if there is already something around on this. Is the
%TIMESTAMP built-in function already able to render microseconds
granularity?
Of course most of you know, %TIMESTAMP returns three trailing zeros after
the timestamp's last period.
I had solved this inconvenient with instructions calling DB2 like:
EXEC SQL SET :myTimeStamp = CURRENT_TIMESTAMP;
For what I have seen, it looks like calling DB2 could be more expensive to
call the QWCCVTDT API to get an expression of the system's clock timestamp
which includes microsecond granularity instead of milliseconds.
Please provide your comments.
Thank you.
JS.
