Subject: Multiple Time Zones
Our system (7.4) sits in the Eastern time zone of the U.S., but we have offices in additional time zones. This morning I have been doing research to determine if there was a way to define different times for each office.
Mainly I have been using technical references from my library (Jim Buck, et al), the Midrange archives, and IBM's Knowledge Center.
Even before I began, I thought of potential problems rookie that I am. Mr.
Vining documented several more, which he admitted was not an exhaustive list. But I thought that, maybe, IBM had figured out a way to address these issues. The archive entries date back over a decade (5.4).
I did find an API or two that might be useful for time displays on panels or reports. I guess I will have to rely on one of those if one turns out to be fruitful, but I'm a lazy individual and do not look forward to plugging it into every program we have.
Thanks for listening.
