Hello,
I am hoping to get some guidance in regards to setting up time zones for different sites/warehouses in D365 F/O.
Currently, our team that processes orders are all stationed physically in 1 time zone (GMT Central Standard US & Canada) however this team works out of multiple different warehouses/sites across the US when placing Sales Orders. Currently everything defaults to the Central Standard Time for all users. We currently close down warehouse operations at 5PM in each time zone that a warehouse is associated with.
With how we operate, we would like each site/warehouse to end its business day at 5PM in that time zone the warehouse is located in and if an order that is processed after 5PM in the time zone of the shipping site is located, the shipping date will automatically default to the next business day. For example, User places an order from a west coast warehouse at 5:03PM Central Standard time, we would want this order to read that is was processed on the current date at 3:03 PM PST and not default to the next business date due to end of business hours due to it being past 5PM CST.
Currently, if the example above occurs, since our clock reads in Central Standard Time across the board for all warehouses, this would default on reporting for the next day since it was after 5PM CST, even though its not past 5PM in the Pacific Time Zone.
Is it possible to set up sites to process business hours based on the time zone of the warehouse processing the Sales Order and account for that so our reporting is reflecting the end of business day correctly per warehouse and time zone?
Would this require that all users that work with that warehouse are set to a specific time zone in their personal settings or is there a way to create working time calendars based on each individual site?
Thank you for the guidance.
