How does FogBugz handle WorkingOn, and Timesheet data in general, for a user who is travelling between timezones?
That is to say, is it recorded in the local timezone? Original timezone only? User / site timezone?
My question applies both to different working periods (which might display inconsistently) and also to a single period of time spanning zones, e.g. working while on a plane travelling between timezones.
And if I enter local times, will this then display as entered, or is it translated to whatever timezone I'm in when displaying it? (I.e., I travel to the far east, do some work there, then come home - If I view my hours worked, do these "make sense", or are they accurate?)

All dates and times are stored in the FogBugz database in UTC. Whenever you enter and view them in the UI, they are translated to/from your timezone as set in My Settings -> Options. If you start work on a case, leave the clock running and then work during your transatlantic flight, if you don't change your timezone in FogBugz, when you stop working on the case, the correct interval will be set. If you then change your timezone and look at your timesheet, you will see the start and end date/time adjusted. You can even change your timezone before you stop working, since everything is adjusted based on your current setting when stored in the DB. |
