For pulsars orbiting stellar or intermediate-mass black holes, standard post-Newtonian timing formulas can differ from a full general-relativistic computation by 10^-7 to 10^-4 seconds, enough to affect future SKA timing.
However, at the moment the timing of SGR J1745-2900 has not yet reached sufficient levels of precision for this purpose, mainly due to the intrinsic variability of the source

Towards an exact approach to pulsar timing
For pulsars orbiting stellar or intermediate-mass black holes, standard post-Newtonian timing formulas can differ from a full general-relativistic computation by 10^-7 to 10^-4 seconds, enough to affect future SKA timing.
