AX Dynamics 2009 Multi Time zone Problem

Hi all,

Here i met a problem that is multi time zone problem.

We have some sites which are US, Taiwan , Thai and Japan. End user will use the remote desk through VPN to access AOS server in Japan. But when these sites create SO/PO and post them to Journal , they have same date. Now we want to solve this problem to display date by each local date.

I tried to change the user opertions to set up the user time zone,it doesn't work.

And i tried to change the company information to specify the time zone for each company, it also doesn't work.

Anybody can share their experience with us?

Thank you very much.

Not certain, but I think that to get the behaviour you want on AX2009 you will need one AOS per user time zone and use user config to control which AOS each user connects with.

Thank you for your reply.

Now each sites use one AOS. I searched that from AX dynamics 2009 , time zone can be set up as user level.

But when i set up time zone for each user,date (requested date , delivery date and so on ) of SO/PO can't be changed as i set the time zone.

Could you tell me the solution?

Thank you very much.

"But when i set up time zone for each user,date (requested date , delivery date and so on ) of SO/PO can't be changed as i set the time zone. "

I mean that administrator->common form->user->user option, and then i set timezone for each user.

When i log in system as i set up user, and create SO/PO ,the time still be the server time.

I don't know how to set up .

If you know , plz teach me.

Thank you very much.

Hi

On my local env, I have created a test Table with a UTCDateTime field and I have activated the CreatedDateTime property.

First of all, I have set my time zone to "(GMT+01:00) Amsterdam, Berlin, Bern, Rome, Stockholm, Vienna".

I have create one record on test Table and initialize the UTCDateTime field with the same value of CreatedDateTime field.

Now I change the User time zone to "(GMT-03:00) Brasilia".

I have browsed my test Table and both UTCDateTime and CreatedDateTime fields had time with the right timezone so, 3 hours back.

If this don't work for you, mean your environment have some bug.

What's your Kernel Roll-up ?

Regards

Hi

Yes, I have create a new table from AOT.

However, you can test also creating an SO and check the CreatedDateTime field.

You can do that from the Sales Order form, go to an header field, Right Click Record Info and choose Show all fields. Look at the bottom right side.

Try to check the field before and after time zone changing.

Let me know any other queries.

Regards

Hi Denis:

And also, when i create PO , the delivery date is server time.

Of course,i set up user option->time zone(i.e Hawaii) for testing.The server time in Japan is Feb. 18, Hawaii should be Feb. 17. So when create PO , the delivery date, and SO Picking list date is still Feb. 18.But for SO , requested receipt date and Requested ship date are Feb. 17.

Now i try it like above.

Thank you .

Duke
