Azara No need for it. Do you fly on commercial jets? Do you ever see a time zone on your ticket? No. You know that if the plane departs Detroit at 10:50 and arrives Chicago at 11:08 (Detroit (DTW) to Chicago (ORD) 12/30/08 10:50 pm - 11:08 pm Northwest flight 1761 for example) that each of the times represented is in the time zone of the location where the event takes place, not that you can fly from Detroit to Chicago in 18 minutes. The times in the ISA and GS are always local time.
As a side note, if you feel that there is a need for the time zone in either the ISA or GS you can submit a data maintenance (DM) request via the X12 web site. Please go to www.x12.org <http://www.x12.org> and click on "Online DM Submission." Your request will be reviewed at the next interim Technical Assessment Subcommittee meeting. There is no requirement that you be a member of X12, although it never hurts to be active in standards development if your company has a requirement that is not being met.
