Environment

SAP S/4HANA Public Cloud Edition

Reproducing the Issue

Access Manage Billing Documents.
Fill filter related document and press Go button.
In the Navigation Panel chose Created on field.

Cause

The current app shows the time in UTC time zone.

Resolution

Use in-app and developer extensibility to apply a workaround that will allow to reflect the local time.

The workaround requires implementation effort, and it is your responsibility to test and check for potential impacts in your system according to your business requirements.

The approach taken here is to create an extensibility to make the date and time of the system user available on the home screen of the "Manage Billing Documents" app.

This extensibility was provided by creating the two custom fields, writing the logic for their calculation in specific BAdlns and enable them for the UI applications to be displayed.

This workaround was implemented to a customer only doing business in and out of Mexico without any other country that requires Manage Billing Documents in the landscape.
