Syntax

[CurrTimeZone :=] SessionSettings.TIMEZONE([NewTimeZone])  

Parameters

NewTimeZone
Type: Text

Specifies the time zone property in the SessionsSettings object.

The value must be a valid Windows time zone name, such as UTC or Pacific Standard Time. For a list of Windows time zones, see Time Zone IDs.

The available time zones are defined in your computer's system registry under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Time Zones.

Return Value

Type: Text

The time zone set in the SessionSettings object.

Example

This example creates a SessionSettings object that is populated with the current client user's personalization data, and then uses the TIMEZONE function to set the time zone to 'UTC' (Coordinated Universal Time). Finally, the REQUESTSESSIONUPDATE function sends a request to the client to abnandon the current session and start a new session that uses the new profile ID. This example requires a SessionSettings data type variable.

The code requires that you create the following C/AL variable.

    MySessionSettings.INIT;
    MySessionSettings.TIMEZONE('UTC');
    MySessionSettings.REQUESTSESSIONUPDATE(false);
