Hi,
We are aware that getting the right time from the database in CRM can be triggy. But we need to get the right time for the user and send it to our ERP (In fact we have created a timezone field in the business unit - since the it's easier to maintain). We are primary gonna use it for integration to ERP.
We are aware that all date/time fields are saved as UTC in the database. So based upon the Owning business unit, we need to calculate the right time. We found that ex. GMT +1 timezone selection in CRM is equal to 105. We found some exambles on how to convert this to the right offset based upon the UTC time in the database.
However we are a Little unsure regarding the daylight saving time. IN CRM i can only select GMT +1 for Denmark (Copenhagen). But currently due daylight savings, we have an offset of +2 hours. How are CRM handling this? Ex. for the previous examble we found the value 105 based upon GMT+1 slection. How does CRM now if we use daylight savings or not based upon the selection?
