Supporting users in multiple time zones

Avoid granting Schedule access to the default Guest account if you deploy the Crystal Enterprise web desktop for users in different time zones. Instead, ensure that each user who is allowed to schedule reports has a dedicated account on the system, and that each user's Crystal Enterprise web desktop preferences include the appropriate time-zone setting. To view or modify the time-zone setting for any user account, use the Preferences Manager, which is available as a Client Sample on the Crystal Enterprise User Launchpad. Dedicated accounts are recommended because the default Guest account does not allow users to modify account preferences that would affect other users. For more information about using specific time-zone properties in your custom web applications, see the Crystal Enterprise SDK documentation.
