Hi, we are trying to read an xlsx spreadsheet to import data into Business Central and create purchase invoices.
We are following the logic found here: https://madhda.com/microsoft-dynamics-365-business-central-how-to-use-excel-buffer-to-import-data-with-multiple-sheets/
We are experiencing issue with cells formated as date that are being imported with a different value based on the user timezone
The files being imported are generated automatically by another system that we have no control over.
We are trying to be able to import the files as is, without any user having to do any conversion or changes to them
If we save the file as CSV, we see the same value was if we open the excel file as is, which should be 7/19/2022
If the user importing the file is in any timezone before UTC time, it's changing the date to be 7/18/2022
If the user is in UTC or anything greater than UTC, the date is being imported properly.
If we create our own sample file with same data, it's all being imported as 7/19/2022 regardless of the user timezone settings
How can we get the same result importing a file regardless of where it's coming from?
Please note that the data is not being formated or modified in any way during the import
The dates mentioned above are the ones we see in the debugger from ExcelBuffer."Cell Value as Text"
Any ideas?
