If you have multiple subsidiaries in different countries, and want to save a date like "Shipment Delivered At", do you save it all in UTC, and depend on reports to filter based on the timezone or the country? Or you convert it in your script, and save the local time directly?

UTC is still a timezone. Aside from some difference @battk hinted at between SS2.0 and SS2.1 handling of dates, if you save it with the correct time in one timezone it should render correctly for others methinks.

if you mean a Date field, then the thing you need to keep in mind is that the Date is set at 12 am of whichever user set the date
you lose a lot of precision there

It is just Date, not DateTime
b
a date time field gets you precision down to minutes

@stalbert Got it, thanks. 🙏
