Title:
Attendance timestamp uses UTC rather than timezone
Status in OpenERP Addons (modules):
Confirmed
Bug description:
Even though this bug report (https://bugs.launchpad.net/openobject-
addons/+bug/943091) seemed to indicate this particular bug occurred in
6.1 and was fixed in 7.0, I still get the same problem.
My timezone is Brisbane, Australia (-10 UTC). If I sign in, either by
using the sign in button or manually creating a sign in event in
HR/Attendances, the browser will (mostly) display the time correctly
for my timezone but it seems that OpenERP converts that time to UTC
time for it's internal operations.
Consequently, if I sign in at 8am on the first day of the timesheet
period, OpenERP actually thinks that I've signed in at 10pm the
previous day, which is effectively in the previous timesheet period.
This means that when I try to submit the timesheet for validation I
get an error saying "The timesheet cannot be validated as it does not
contain an equal number of sign ins and sign outs".
This is using the latest nightly build (20130513-231009). I've tried
with both Firefox and Safari browsers and the result is the same.
I've included a screenshot showing that there is a discrepancy in how
the time is recorded. Note the difference between the time displayed
in the form and that shown in the data above.
Thanks,
Bill.
