Moreover I've tried date module to tranform date to more db friendly format and this is not working too:
This config:
../default
accounting {
       update control {
               &Tmp-Integer-0 := "%{integer: request:Event-Timestamp}"
       }
That copies the time as an integer value.

perl
or this
file ../mods-enabled/date
date date_chdb {
       format = "%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S"
}
../default
update control {
      &Tmp-Integer-0 := "%{date_chdb : request:Event-Timestamp}"
}
That puts the time as a string into an integer value.  That won't work.
...
perl
With perl date
sub accounting {
&radiusd::radlog(L_INFO, "Timestamp: $RAD_REQUEST{'Tmp-Integer-0'}");
    return RLM_MODULE_OK;
}
Leads to empty output in logs:

If only there was some kind of debug output you could show.
