Ezaco Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 Wasn't sure how to title that. Basically whenever time and date entries are made, those are set to be local to whomever set those dates. This is what it looks like for one of my processors in Australia: And the same entry, but viewed by someone in the USA: Is there a way to make these date entries correspond to a single time zone?

Administrators Jon Erickson Posted November 1, 2018 Administrators Share Posted November 1, 2018 At this time, IPB sets each users timezone based on their location. I could add the option of having all DateTime objects be set to a set timezone but I don't recommend it. It would be confusing to users to have part of the website in their native timezone and part in a different timezone.

Ezaco Posted November 1, 2018 Author Share Posted November 1, 2018 Could it be possible to set what is input into PERSCOM as a configurable timezone, but then when people view it they see it in their locally set time zone? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ignacio Pablo Duro Posted August 1, 2019 Share Posted August 1, 2019 Hi! Quick question!

Then, why is PERSCOM asking for a timezone (as mandatory field) when the user issue an application? Why PERSCOM does not takes it directly from IPS database? Thanks!

Administrators Jon Erickson Posted August 2, 2019 Administrators Share Posted August 2, 2019 Good question! Honestly, because it was brought over from PERSCOM 1.0 when IPB did not natively manage time zones. This personnel field could be taken out in PERSCOM 2.0 as it really plays no role besides letting someone who’s viewing their personnel file know which part of the world they are from.

Ignacio Pablo Duro Posted August 2, 2019 Share Posted August 2, 2019 (edited) Yeah, that's what I though. And yes, totally agree, I think that "Timezone" field should be taken out and just leave "Country" to be completed by the user. Thanks for your answer!
