UserTimezoneOffset
Specifies the user's timezone offset as configured in NetSuite. This setting ensures that Date and Time values are displayed correctly based on the user's NetSuite preferences.
Data Type
string
Default Value
""
Remarks
NetSuite offsets Date and Time values based on user timezone preferences. DateTime values, however, are always returned the same way regardless of timezone settings. The add-in attempts to adjust date values to match the NetSuite UI automatically, but certain time zones, such as +13:00, +12:00, and -12:00 may require manually setting this property for accurate date display. For other offsets, setting this property is recommended for best accuracy but is not required.
Usage Considerations
- If the user’s timezone is +13:00, +12:00, or -12:00, set this property to ensure dates display correctly.
- If retrieving Time values, this property is needed only if the time on the local machine does not match the logged-in user's timezone in NetSuite.
- To check your timezone offset in NetSuite, log in, hover over the Home icon, and select Preferences.
If the add-in is running on a machine with a different timezone than the NetSuite user, set UserTimezoneOffset to match the user's preference in NetSuite.
This property applies only when Schema is set to SuiteTalk.
