Time zone settings using STZAC

[Former Member]

Hello SAP Guru's,

I was looking for some suggestions/answers on a query I have.

In our 4.6C system, The OS level Time zone is in EDT, also when I check System > Status i can see the correct time as per OS level.

But in STZAC i can see it as CET (for both 'System time zone' & 'Default time zone')

Please let me know, what I can do to make it in sync. What time zone settings should be done in STZAC ? and will it have any adverse effect on users or system data ?

Hi Arpit,

If there are differences in time/timezones of SAP and OS, you can have adverse effect on your system.

Please read below SAP notes:

And on how to set,

Hi

1. In that case you time zone settings correct in OS & SAP

2. Is this any error or dump because of timing zone?
