Issue
Symptoms
Certain user timezone preference ex. EET is not honored on instance as per user preference setting
Release
All Releases
Cause
Working as designed since EET (or other such deprecated time zone selection) Time zone has been deprecated as per Wiki standards which ServiceNow follows
Resolution
- User's Timezone setting of 'EET' typically would override the System Timezone setting saved in the 'glide.sys.default.tz' System Property
- Support for these Timezones is driven by Wiki standards at the link below:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_zoneinfo_time_zones
- As per this Wiki link, 'EET' timezone has been depracated and as a result the system switches to EST timezone which is the default timezone for the instance
- Please ask your users to select a valid Timezone in their User Profile to resolve this issue
