There are different use cases for the usage of time zones, from displaying a specific timestamp in a specific time zone up to using a user specified time zone for example for all applications running in Fiori Launchpad.
Application developers have to differentiate between dates and times which are time zone independent and timestamps that can be displayed in different time zones.
In this presentation we explain the differences between dates, times and timestamps and how to use them best in UI5 applications with the corresponding OData data types, data binding and the corresponding controls.
Using a configured time zone that is different to the browser time zone may require an adjustment of the application code, if it uses JavaScript Date objects. We show how to prepare the application code to be ready for using a configured time zone.
