Business value

The time zone-agnostic feature enhances your organization's ability to create resource requirements and bookings with accurate dates that don't depend on time zone differences.

Feature details

Time zone–agnostic fields on resource requirements and resource bookings let project owners set default start and end dates for a project's resource requirements, details, bookings, and related tables.

Currently, these entities use time zone–aware date fields. When users work in different time zones from the original creation time zone, the date fields convert the dates. This conversion causes unintentional discrepancies. This feature enhances extensibility by giving organizations flexibility to use time zone–independent date fields when their organization spans multiple geographies.
