Configuring the Default Locale and Time Zone

The default locale and time zone is set during installation. The locale and time zone affect various functions of Archer, such as calculation, time-based filtering, and reporting. It is vital to your operations that you understand how time and date are used throughout Archer.

You can set the default locale and time zone for all instances or a specific instance. The settings in the Installation Settings can be overridden at the instance.
