Time & Date Issue

Hello All,

I am having some issues with Date and Time when generating reports.

I fully understand that by default Odoo stores all information in its Database in UTC format where as when I see the form view it shows the correct time & date as per timezone of the user.
​

The timezone of my server is set PKT (GMT+5), and the same time is set in postgresql.conf.

Lets suppose its 12.01 AM 25 July and I make any purchase order at that moment; and if I generate any report to see all the purchase orders made on 25 July it will NOT show this record as in Odoo Database this transaction was stored in UTC which is 7.01 PM 24 July. So this transaction will appear in the report for 24 July but as per me it was made on 25 July.

This is one just example, this is something happening on almost everything.

Can any one be kind enough to help me fix this issue in my modules.

I am using a few custom modules on as well on Odoo CE V11 and I am really looking forward to your expert advise.

Please help me.

Thanks

Actually, the database stores the Datetime field according to the system timezone. In Odoo, views which will be automatically converted according to the user's timezone if it is set.

Your TZ is. GMT+5),. So your custom operations on Datetime field need the proper conversion of Timezone according to the user.

Odoo views and ORM methods are treated the TZ with moment.js and the pytz conversions. This is actually a good feature to manage different timezones in Odoo.

You can use astimezone on Datetime objects:


def astimezone(self, tz): # known case of datetime.datetime.astimezone
    """ tz -> convert to local time in new timezone tz """
    return datetime(1, 1, 1)

or 

fields.Datetime.context_timestamp(self, datetime.strptime(value, DEFAULT_SERVER_DATETIME_FORMAT))
Examples:
1. date = date.replace(tzinfo=pytz.timezone('UTC')).astimezone(timezone)
2.
import time
from datetime import datetime
from pytz import timezone
import pytz

tz = partner_id.tz or self.env._context.get('tz') # Find Timezone from user or partner or employee
att_tz = timezone(tz or 'utc') # If no tz then return in UTC
attendance_dt = datetime.strptime(date, DEFAULT_SERVER_DATETIME_FORMAT) #Input date
att_tz_dt = pytz.utc.localize(attendance_dt)
att_tz_dt = att_tz_dt.astimezone(att_tz) # converted value to tz

Hello,

Thanks

In terms of coding I am very novice.

If you dont mind, I am pasting the code lines from my module.

Can you please make the changes in that and guide me.

My timezone in GMT+5 so based on that please guide me.

Really appreciate your guidance.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Asad:

Odoo displays the timezone information based on a user's preferences. However, if all your users are located in the same timezone you can try this:

  • Activate developer mode

  • Go to Settings > Users & Companies

  • Set the filter to "Inactive Users"

  • One of the inactive users will be something called "odoobot". Update the "Timezone" in the "Preferences" tab of this user to your local timezone.
