Time Zone
When importing user records, you must enter a starting time zone that the system can use for time stamps. You might want to enter the code corresponding to the company office where the user is located. Time zone is a user preference setting that the user can change later if necessary. The time zone can also be set in a user preference template.
About UTC
The Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) is a 24-hour time standard. The westernmost time zone uses UTC−12, being twelve hours behind UTC; the easternmost time zone, theoretically, uses UTC+12, being twelve hours ahead of UTC. Calculation of the UTC time standard is the same as with Greenwich Mean Time (GMT).
Note:
The local time in London is the same as UTC time.
The following table lists the UTC time standards used in the system.
