----------------------------------------------------------
Thanks for the response Pierre and I am located in Australia. The correct
date/time is the one displayed in the Raw date string: 20121108144205Z and the
incorrect time is the "friendly" time. It may be that the software we are using
is putting the time in correct straight away (or already compensating for the
11 hour difference) but Apache is compensating again and adding 11 hours even
though it doesn't need to.
Another piece of software that also adds a date field to eDirectory puts the
raw date/time as 11 hours in the past so when Studio compensates for the local
time it translates it to the real local time.
Maybe DS needs to have an option (e.g. "Friendly time sync check" for local
machine check box?) to detect the time being inserted raw and if the inserted
time is similar to the local machines time, it doesn't change, otherwise it
does.

> We have a piece of photocapture software that takes a photo and adds it to
> our eDirectory tree along with the date the photo was taken. The format it
> uses to store the date in is the following: 20121108144205Z
> (yyyyddmmhhmm??Z). Apache takes this date and converts it to a more user
> friendly version but this date is off by +11 hours as below.
