What is the target field type ?
Why you need to convert current_timestamp using to_timestamp ?
Why not use current_timestamp of systimestamp directly.

Target Field is TimeStamp
time stamp is storing the data in format of dd-mm-yyyy hh:mi:ss.f , i dont want .f i just want upto seconds...
I tried both systimestamp and current_timestamp.

If you do not want time factors, why use timestamp for the field.

If only data and time portion is required why not use DATE data type and sysdate only.
