We are excited to announce the launch of updated product names, logos, and headers within our user interfaces as part of the CivicPlus® Solution Rebranding initiative. These changes mark the first step toward creating a cohesive and seamless user experience across all solutions in our portfolio. As part of this transition, users may notice minor design updates. While the functionality you rely on remains unchanged, we are in the process of updating screenshots and other resources on our Help Centers to reflect the new branding. We appreciate your patience and understanding as we work to complete these updates.

Set the System Time Zone

  • Updated:

This article will show you how to adjust the time zone for your solution. This will help ensure that meetings and events display the correct times.

 

Important Notes

  • You must have permission to access User and Global Site Settings to change the system time zone.

  • The "US Mountain Standard Time or Mountain Standard Time (Mexico)" time zone does not observe Daylight Saving Time and is primarily used for locations like Arizona. "Mountain Standard Time" does observe Daylight Saving Time and is appropriate for most other Mountain Time locations, such as New Mexico. Choosing the wrong option can result in times being displayed incorrectly (for example, 1 hour behind or ahead), depending on the time of year.
