User time and system time zone

[Former Member]

Hi,

We have a SAP systems in diffrent time zones . Development at one time zone , QA and Prod at another time zone .

Now my question is do we need to maintain all the systems across the landscape would have to maintain same time zone ?

Or Country specific time zones?

Should i maintained User time zone and System time zone both should same time zone ?

because users are diffrent locations how should i maintaind ?

Please suggest.

Thanks

Maintain them accordingly. Maintain system time zone based on its location. User time zone can be set in the respective user profile. You can set default values using STZAC transaction.

Notice: don't worry about different server timezones regarding validity calculation of cross-system assertions (in particular: SAP logon tickets).

The timestamp information contained in SAP logon tickets is encoded in UTC.

But: make sure that the system clocks are in synch. Usually only a few minutes time lapse are tolerated.
