User Overview Dashboard different time zone with System Security Logon time

[Catherine_Tee]

There is different time zone between System - Security Logon time show 3.32pm (UTC+8) and in User Overview Dashboard show 7.32am (UTC). Possible synchronize showing same time zone which follow System - Security Logon time show 3.32pm into dashboard. Please advise how to update in dashboard.

The rule is 

Select Name, Description, Email,LogonTime

--CONVERT(nvarchar, LogonTime, 110) as 'Logon Day'

--DATEDIFF(dd,LogonTime,GetUTCDATE()) AS 'Days since last Log on'

from secuser

Hi @Catherine_Tee , you would need to move your logic to a Dashboard DataSet, but you could do something like this example.  Here we retrieve the columns you want with a modified SQL query e.g. LogonTime does not exist in SecUser table so you need a Join and also Null handling on the LogonTime column.  Then you can get the Local LogonTime using the TimeZoneInfo object and then convert the UTC time (LogonTime) to Local Time (LocalLogonTime)

Hope this helps
