Date and Time Settings

$images\btn_mini.jpg$ Related Topics $images\btn_mini.jpg$ Getting Started

System-wide settings for date/time display of calendar appointments are the same for all users and for all records and are performed by the System Administrator using Suite Manager. However, users can override the system default to display dates/times for calendar appointments in a user-specified format.

$images\icn_note.jpg$ The first time you open the Date and Time settings on the Preferences tab of the Tools page in Bridgeway Suite, the system will attempt to set the time zone based on the system-wide settings for Bridgeway Suite (configured by your System Administrator). Adjust the settings as needed. These settings override the system-wide settings from Suite Manager.
