Does it possible to maintain more than one time zone using one server in openerp?. I have added two users "admin" with "Asia/Kolkata" and "admin1" with EST. I have login with "admin" it is showing "08/26/2014 20:01:49", and i have login with "admin1" for this user also it is showing "08/26/2014 20:02:05" same time. How can i overcome this? Is it  possible to change time zone for a database? this also give solution to my problem.

Yes, If you have 2 or more users and for each user, we could set their respective time-zone.

How can we set?

Go to User menu from Settings/Users/Users, select your user and in the Preference page, you can see the TIMEZONE field. Choose your needed TZ there

Just click on your username in the right upper corner, select preferences and choose desired timezone.

I have little confusion. time showing 15:10:00, but when i see the database record, it has 11:30:31. Why this difference. But when i see this record in list it is showing 15:10:00.

It is caused by the server - it stores record in database with GMT datetime and shows the record to the user with their current timezone.

Thank you Mariusz Mizgier, does it working properly to you, when change in user preferences? . To me its not working properly. Am i need to change any configurations ?

Yes, it is - I'm in GMT +1, so it shows all the times correctly.
