Parameter Sets

We are using parameter sets in our system. Question is, we want the start time stamp to be available in a param set value so that all jobs in the system will see the same time stamp.

I've searched the site and didn't come back with much. One pointed to using a user variable stage and taking it from there, but all the jobs will need access to this value. Will the user variable be available to all jobs?

Thanks....

Start time of what?

Job start time is already available in macros.

yes.
you can map the variable in user variable stage to all the job activities/sequences in the sequnce

It's important to note the "in the same sequence" part of the answer. That is a Sequence job stage and it would make the new parameter value available to any jobs that are downstream from it in the same Sequence as the UserVariables stage in question.
