Objective

Set the timezone used for a person's work so schedule and date-based information is interpreted in the intended location.

Environment

  • You have permission to manage users in People Settings.
  • You know each person's working timezone, especially when the workforce spans locations.

Resolution

  1. Open People Settings → Users and find the person.
  2. Select the edit action, find Timezone, and choose the person's working timezone. Select Update Person.
  3. Repeat for other people whose working timezone differs. To update several people, use the Users bulk edit controls, set Timezone, apply the change to the selected people, and select Save bulk changes.
  4. Review a person's saved timezone before planning work across date boundaries or daylight saving changes.
    Note: Other timezones stay separate

    A person’s work timezone does not automatically change their display timezone or the company reporting timezone.
