Time Zones

Because the information you collect can be from many different locations and time zones, all information is recorded with a time zone and local time.

This make it possible to show events in different time zones in the correct chronological order.

 

This is how time zones work:

  • The date and time are set on the application server to provide the base line for dates and times in the database.

  • Clients can have a different time zone set to that on the server, if they're located in a different time zone from the server.

    See Change the Default Time Zone in the user guide.

  • Clients can record dates and times for different time zones by setting the correct time zone for that time when they enter data.
