2389381 - Learning Item Required by Date is showing one day later in Supervisor/Manager page view

• A Supervisor assigns an Item to a subordinate user and sets a Required Date
• When Supervisor views the user's Learning Plan on My Employees page, it shows a day later

• SAP SuccessFactors
• Learning Management System (LMS)

1. Login as a Supervisor User
2. Navigate to My Employees
3. Select "Assign/Remove Learning" from Supervisor Links
4. Assign an Item to the user and specify a Required Date (Due Date)
5. Reload the Learning Plan for the User in My Employees tab
6. Note the Due Date shows 1 day later (or days past due is off by a day in case of items that are past the required by date)
7. The User sees the correct date in his/her learning plan
8. In Admin view, the date appears correct on the User record Assigned Items

• This is caused by the Supervisor / Manager user having a Time Zone later than the User
• User required date is stored in the User's timezone
• Example:
1. User is in PST (GMT -8), Supervisor is in EST (GMT -5)
2. Supervisor sets Required date to March 15th
3. It is then stored as March 15th, 11:59pm PST
4. For the Supervisor, this would be viewed as March 16th 2:59am EST (which is 11:59pm PST)

• For the My Employees page, there are no options to have the Required Date to be displayed in the Supervisor's timezone
• If the Supervisor sets their preferred time zone to that of their subordinates, they will see the expected time
• For Administrators, there is an option to disable the Required Dates to be displayed in the Learner's timezone, but it does not change this for the My Employees view:
1. Login as an Admin
2. Navigate to System Admin > System Configuration
3. Open LMS_ADMIN in edit mode
4. Locate the entry for learningPlanDisplayInLearnerTimezone
• If the option is true then, by default, dates are displayed in the User's preferred time zone.
• If false, it is displayed in the Admin's preferred time zone.
• Default: true

 Note: Due date set in curriculum is stored in database timezone. (UTC timezone in general.)
