Setting timezone enables Odoo to display date and time on messages based on the logged-in user. If the Timezone field is left empty for a user it may lead to unpredictable changes in the code. So it is necessary to ensure that you indicate a Timezone while creating a user record.
Datetime data in DB is stored in and according to the user’s timezone. I will get automatically converted and in this way, we can handle users from different timezones. While loading the view Odoo is actually adding timezone context with the stored data. No need for any extra configurations to manage accounts and reports.
Let’s see how to configure Timezone in Odoo13:
Go to Settings module and click on Manage users, where you can see different users that can be the public, portal, or internal user.
Now select a user from the user’s list. This shows the user configuration page where it is possible to set access rights, preferences, Oauth, and calendar. Under the Preferences tab, you can see a Localization section where Timezone can be set for the user along with the Language.
When printing documents and exporting/importing data, time values are computed according to this timezone. If the timezone is not set, UTC (Coordinated Universal Time) is used. Anywhere else, time values are computed according to the time offset of your web client.
It is also necessary to make sure that the timezone that you are setting matches with that of your browser so that you can avoid time discrepancies in your system. If incase there is a mismatch then Odoo shows a warning symbol at the right side of the field.
