Hi Adrian,
Have I understood this right? ...
A user wants to create a work effort. In the create workeffort screen,
they add the current date and time for the estimatedStartDate, e.g.
2010-01-20 16:00:00 (CET)
The createWorkEffort service saves the estimatedStartDate using
"set-non-pk-fields". This method ultimately calls an implementation of
LocalizedConverter which saves it as 2010-01-20 15:00:00 (GMT)
Many thanks,
Chris

Chris,
Most all date-time fields in OFBiz are converted to the user's time zone.
Date-time values are stored in the entities as java.sql.Timestamp - which
always references GMT.

When a workeffort is created in
ofbiz, are the dates stored in UTC?
I.e. When a user creates a workeffort and enter the
estimated start date, will the estimated start date need to
be entered by the user in UTC?
Many thanks,
Chris
