HowTo: Configure timezone in the Back Office

This document explains how to configure the timezone to display the correct date and time in the Back Office.

To configure the timezone, do the following:

1. Set the config value for the key \Spryker\Shared\UtilDateTime\UtilDateTimeConstants::DATE_TIME_ZONE, choosing one of the PHP-supported timezones.

2. Update the corresponding config, for example in config/Shared/config_default.php:

use Spryker\Shared\UtilDateTime\UtilDateTimeConstants;

$config[UtilDateTimeConstants::DATE_TIME_ZONE] = 'Europe/Berlin';

For the US store, the configuration could be set as follows:

use Spryker\Shared\UtilDateTime\UtilDateTimeConstants;

$config[UtilDateTimeConstants::DATE_TIME_ZONE] = 'America/New_York';
