Setting Up Siebel Global Time Zone Support

Environments: Development, production test, production.

Platforms: Windows, UNIX, IBM z/OS.

Global deployments typically span multiple time zones. The global time zone feature converts and stores date and time data using the Universal Time Coordinated (UTC) standard. This feature enables you to track dates and times in a common format across multiple time zones.

It is strongly recommended that you operate your production environment with global time zone enabled.

For information on setting up and managing UTC, see Siebel Global Deployment Guide.
