    Scheduled Workflow: how to automate switch to European Summer Time?

    Espo Version: 6.0.8
    Advanced Pack 2.6.5

    Hello!

    In our area (Austria) we usually have Central European Time (UTC+1)

    The Espo workflow can be scheduled by UTC time. So if I want to send a system email to my portal users at 9.00 am, I have to use scheduling 0 8 * * *.
    This works fine for me.

    But last sunday in March we switch the standard clock time to Central European Summer Time (UTC+2).

    Is there a way to automate this change of standard clock time? Its a pain to go through all workflows twice a year to change scheduling manually.

    Thank you!

    Hi,
    As far as I am aware it is not possible to achieve via UI.

      Hello DEN!

      I did not really expect to solve this issue from UI.

      Might be a point for ESPO Developers to add this feature in future versions?

        Also known as "Daylight saving", I tried searching for this keyword but got nothing.

        Not sure if it work but could this be do-able? Create Workflow that change the Timezone twice a year? Or is that not possible...

          Hi gusta, I don't have Workflow extensions so not sure if it possible, it was just a suggestion.

          Please note that I'm just another user like yourself and is not part of the official team.
