Time Offset

Offset (minutes)​

Time Offset

Type — Numeric input field (integer value)

Defines the time difference (in minutes) between the device's local time and the server time. This ensures that timestamps used during synchronization are properly aligned.

Value Examples
0→Device time matches server time
+120→Device is 2 hours ahead of server
-180→Device is 3 hours behind server
Behavior

When the value is set:

  • The entered offset is applied to all synchronization-related timestamps.
  • The system adjusts local timestamps before sending data to the server.
  • Helps prevent issues such as:
  • Incorrect transaction times
  • Synchronization conflicts
  • Server-side validation errors
Impact on User Interface and System

The value is saved immediately after change.

Effects on:

  • Synchronization timestamps
  • Order dates
  • Audit logs and records
⚠ Incorrect values may cause synchronization issues.
Typical Use Case:Devices operating in a different time zone from the backend server · Environments with fixed server time zone configuration
