Jacques Le Roux commented on OFBIZ-2813:
----------------------------------------

Hi David, I want to commit Bob's work. 
But it's unclear to me: what is
{quote}
 much more consistent with the other settings...
{quote}
?

It seems to me that the property in start.properties
{code}
# -- The default time zone for this OFBiz instance.
#ofbiz.timeZone.default=GMT
{code}
Can only set 1 time zone and, as Bob explained above, an instance may need more than 1 time zone

> The ProductStore has the defaultLocaleString and the defaultCurrencyUomId but does not have a defaultTimeZoneString.  What happens when a store is selected (from e-commerce or the pos) is that it will look to the user for a lastTimeZone and if that is not set, it would simply revert to the TimeZone.getDefault() (so the timezone based on the server).
> The trouble we had was that you may have an application server that is running in a completely different timezone than what is desired for the store.
> I will be attaching a patch to this ticket with changes related to this improvement.
