Documentation
Definition
The time zone describes the location of an object relative to its local time.
The basic field assignments describe
- The time difference of the time zone in hours/minutes relative to the UTC
- The beginning and end of summer time
It is neither necessary nor advisable to use different time zones for Summer and Winter time.
It is possible to convert local times between the local time and a UTC time stamp using the ABAP command convert. The parameters are local time (date and time), time zone and UTC time stamp.
If no personal time zone is set for a user, the system uses the values configured in transaction STZAC. If no time zone is set in the field "User's Default Time Zone", the system time zone is used.
