Time Zone Conversions Overview

Several elements throughout Core use the date and time to collect, display, and retrieve data. Because some information is based on the current user's time zone, there may be instances of users from different time zones seeing variances when accessing the same data.

The table below summarizes the elements that use date-related data and indicates if there are any conversions into the current user's time zone. For additional information, see the Time Zone Conversions on Reports and Time Zone Conversions on Concatenations articles.
