In Boost.space IntegratorPart of the Boost.space system, where you can create your connections and automate your processes., every organization and every user has a definable time zone parameter. However, Boost.space Integrator uses organization time zones and user time zones differently:
-
The organization time zone defines the time used when executing scenariosA specific connection between applications in which data can be transferred. Two types of scenarios: active/inactive. and modules. For example, a scenarioA specific connection between applications in which data can be transferred. Two types of scenarios: active/inactive. schedule of “4:00 pm every day” means 4:00 pm in the organization’s time zone.
-
The user time zone is similar to locale and defines how Boost.space Integrator displays time, for example, in scenario execution history.
As a result, organization members in a time zone different from the organization’s time zone may see different times displayed. See the example below for more details.
Your profile page lets you view and edit time zone settings from the Time Zone Options tab.
A Boost.space Integrator organization based in New York City has members in New York City, Los Angeles, and London. When members view scenario execution histories, they see that information relative to their local time zone. Members in London see the time scenarios executed in London time, Los Angeles members see those execution times in LA time, and so on. However, when they schedule scenarios, Boost.space Integrator uses New York City time regardless of the user’s location.
