2605259 - Calendar Current Time Is Not The Same As Time Zone Defined in My Settings

Symptom

You defined a Time Zone in your My Settings screen but when accessing the Calendar work center the line (indicating current time) is the same as your device time.

Environment

SAP Cloud for Customer

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Click in your user name in the upper right corner of the screen (RUI) or click in the Personalize button (HTML5).
  2. Select My Settings.
  3. In the Time Zone field, select ABC (where ABC is the time zone desired).
  4. Click in the Calendar work center (RUI) or Calendar Icon (HTML5) in the left menu bar.
  5. Click in the Today button.

You notice that the blue line (RUI) or the red line (HTML5) are showing the current device time. You expected to see the information based on the time zone ABC defined in the step 3.

Cause

Current time marker line is designed to show information as per the device time.

This is the current system standard behavior. If you need the marker line to show information based on your time zone defined in My Settings screen, you may contact your implementation manager to help with such request or approach directly the SAP Cloud Service Center.
