While consuming the GetAllMyWkgWorkorders API method to fetch the Work Orders for a specific date range, the incorrect syntax error message was displayed.

This issue occurred if the user’s time zone value was in negative as after converting the minus time zone value, the minus symbol was preceded by another minus symbol of the precedented dynamic query, e.g. <dynamic query - - time zone value>. So, the system was considering the double minus symbols as a comment within the SQL statement.
