Oracle EBS includes as standard a feature called User-Preferred Time Zone Support. In general, all users interact with the system in the “corporate time zone”, which will normally be the time zone of the headquarters of the client, and the time zone in which the database runs. The client may have their presence in other countries with different timezone such as India, England etc. whose timezone is different from corporate timezone.
