Time Zone Impact on Zendesk Explore Reports

Understand how time zone settings affect ticket creation reports in Zendesk Explore and learn how to adjust for global teams.

How does time zone affect ticket creation reports in Zendesk Explore?

Time zone settings can significantly impact how ticket creation times are displayed in Zendesk Explore reports.

Explore uses the current user's time zone when displaying reports, meaning the ticket creation hour will be based on that time zone. If your team operates globally, you might want to consider using UTC time instead of your local time zone to ensure consistency across different regions. This adjustment can help avoid discrepancies in reporting for teams spread across multiple time zones.
