Set the Time Zone for Pricing Administration

Specify the time zone to use for time attributes that display in the Pricing Administration work area, such as the Start Date and End Date.

Time attributes store date and time values in the server time zone, by default. You can specify your time zone to display in the Pricing Administration work area.

Assume you must set the time zone to Pacific Time.

1. Go to your Home page, then click Set Preferences.

2. On the Preferences page, click Regional.

3. On the General Preferences page, set the Time Zone preference to your preferred time zone.

   The Pricing Administration work area will use this preference to determine the time zone to use when it displays time attributes.

   For this example, set it to (UTC-8:00) Los Angeles - Pacific Time (PT).

4. Create a new price list, then notice the Start Date and End Date on the Edit Price Page displays in the Pacific time zone.

Note

• Pricing converts your time zone to the server time zone when it saves the value of a time attribute to the database. For example, it converts the value in Start Date to the server time zone. If you query the price list, then the Edit Price List page converts Start Date from server time to Pacific Time and displays it.

• This feature applies only to values in the Pricing Administration work area. It doesn't apply to file-based data import, pricing spreadsheets you use through Application Development Framework Desktop Integration (ADFDI), or pricing through REST API. These technologies use the server time zone. For details and examples about REST API, go to REST API for Oracle Supply Chain Management Cloud, then expand Order Management.
