We are utilising CRM to send auto updates on open CRM cases and also
recording these updates within the CRM case, as part of this we are including
the 'createdon' entry.

The only problem is that this generates an entry that lists the following:

Created on: 10/10/2007 4:20 AM (GMT-08:00) Pacific Time (US & Canada); Tijuana

Now the case was actually created 10/10/2007 PM (GMT +08:00) Perth.

The servers are set correctly, the Users PC is set correctly, and the
timestamp for the actual record is set correctly as:

10/10/2007 7:20 PM by System, Administrator

As we are using the 'createdon' to show when a case was created, it is
important to our clients that the correct time be represented. Can anyone
please advise how to set this to our TimeZone (GMT +08:00)

Thankyou in advance.

Okay Amanda the Amazing solved it.

She just logged in as the Admin, reset the Time Zone to our correct timezone
and then it was correct (DOH!).

Rather than logging in with Admin privileges, you actually have to log into
the Admin account and set the timezone.
