Your company time zone is the default time zone for sourcing activity opening and closing times, so your team and suppliers know exactly when an activity opens and closes. It's set in Company Settings and applies to your whole organisation.
Before you start
Change the time zone
Open Company Settings
Go to Settings > Company Settings.
Choose the Company Time Zone
Pick the time zone from the Company Time Zone list. This field is required.
The list has 25 whole-hour time zones, from (UTC-12:00) — Baker Island Time (BIT) to (UTC+12:00) — Fiji Time (FJT). Half-hour zones, such as India (UTC+05:30), aren't available, so choose the nearest one.
Click Save Changes
The new time zone is saved for your whole organisation.
What happens next
New sourcing activities: use the new time zone. The opening and closing times you enter are in this time zone.
Existing sourcing activities: keep the time zone they were created with, so their opening and closing times don't move.
Everything else: other dates and times in oboloo, such as contract dates and notifications, aren't affected by this setting.
Your team and suppliers: let them know if the time zone for future activities has changed, especially if they work in other regions.
Troubleshooting
My time zone isn't in the list
Only whole-hour offsets from UTC are available. Choose the nearest one and state the local time clearly when you invite suppliers.
An existing sourcing activity still shows the old time zone
That's expected. Each activity keeps the time zone it was created with. Only new activities use the new Company Time Zone.
I can't change the Company Time Zone or don't see Save Changes
