Hello-

We are having an issue with the OrderDate field on SOOrder. When you create a new order, it automatically populates with the ‘current date’ - however there appears to be a timezone discrepancy / bug.

Order created on 11/29/22 at 10:53 PM:

OrderDate field automatically populates with date 11/30/2022:

Both the timezone of the user, and the timezone of the site in ‘Site Preferences > Login Time Zone’ are configured to be Eastern Time:

 

 

Does anybody know how to set the timezone the system uses to fill the OrderDate field?

The wrong date is resulting in discrepancies in our reporting numbers.

 

Thank you!!

Thank you - The API only mimics the UI. 

You can change the date manually in either case, as you have linked, however the system is still using the wrong time zone to set the default value.

I don’t think remembering, or coding, to set the date manually on every order after 9 or 10 PM is a good solution

 

Hi @xkylewrightx were you able to find a solution? Thank you!

If the CreatedDate value is correct then you can;

Set the PXDefault value of the OrderDate to CreatedDate or

Add a RowInserting EventHandler to set the OrderDate to to UtcDate
