How to determine the time zone of OneStream XF Application Server?

I am beginning the setup of the Task Manager solution. When configuring Close Dates, two parameters: Close Start Day and Close Start Hour reference Server Time. Instructions specify that this refers to "the time zone where the OneStream XF Application Server is located"

In a cloud based configuration, how do I determine the time zone of my Application Server?

Thanks!

You should be able to get the time zone information using Microsoft calls in a business rule. Links to MSFT site linked below.  This will return the timezone information of the server that the business rule is executed on.  So if the Data Management server is different than the application server (in a different facility), that would be a more difficult problem.
