Using Custom Print Tool to show local time

Anonymous User — Sun, 03 Dec 2017 16:35:23 GMT

Is there a way to show the local time for when a Survey was collected when using the Custom Print Tool? Seems like it will only show the UTC time. This will be used in multiple time zones

Hi Robb,

This appears to be a bug with the Custom Report template printing on the ${CreationDate} field, it is always returning UTC format date/time regardless of the formatting set via parameters. All other date/time fields in the survey appear to be displaying as local date/time based on region of device. Also note the Print Individual Response preview/print is displaying the correct local date/time, not UTC for this same field.

I have raised a new issue for this bug and added your comments/details to the issue.

Regards,

Phil.

Hi Robb,

Thanks for your feedback.

From the next 2.6 release, datetime, date and time question in the custom report will use the timezone on the computer who prints the report.
