Wrong time zone in reports

[Former Member]

Hello,

It seems that SAP ByDesign stores dates in GMT time zone. As a result in all reports the time is wrong when you are not in GMT, which is quite annoying if for instance I want to have a report of meetings for the coming week.

Is there a solution to this problem? It is for instance possible to add a calculated field with the time, but can I also add 1 or 2 hours to that date?

Thanks for you ideas.

Hi Thomas,

You can change the Time Zone setting in sap bydesign depending to your time zone.

Please refer below.

Hi Toke Kit,

Thanks for your advice. In fact my time zone is correct, it is UTC +1. Which means that with summertime the difference to GMT  is +2 hours.

When I create a meeting in the CRM for instance at 15h SAP will store the data in GMT, meaning 13h GMT. On the screen it is not a problem as it still shows the meeting at 15h because I am in UTC +1. However when I create a report I only can get the GMT time, meaning 13h.

Hope it is clearer now what the problem is.

Regards,

Thomas
