Pega DateTime in BST/GMT
Hi,
Greetings. Hope you are well! I am on Pega 23.1.3 and have an issue with a DateTime control in a section, a section is reused one using a readonly data page where the date times are shown in BST which is correct, same section is being reused in a local action via an editable data page, here the date times are shown as GMT, there is no change to control in section except that it was readonly in one place (where times are in BST).
Can anyone please let me know if i am missing anything?
Regards,
Bharat

@KOMARINA It seems that the DateTime control is displaying differently based on its context (read only vs editable). In Pega the DateTime value shown in the DateTime control can differ from the Timeline control when using locale settings. For instance a DateTime value displayed in British Summer Time (BST) may show as GMT in other contexts. This could be due to how the Moment JavaScript library handles time zones. You might want to ensure that the Pega date time formatter is being used consistently across both contexts to maintain the same display format. Additionally check if there are any specific configurations or settings in the editable data page that might affect the time zone display.
