The Time zone Functionality in oboloo allows users to set opening and closing dates for sourcing activities based on their local time zones. This feature is particularly useful for global teams and international suppliers, ensuring clarity and accuracy in submission deadlines. With time zone support, all suppliers receive deadlines that are specific to their respective locations, helping prevent confusion about submission times. This guide will walk you through how to set up time zone-specific deadlines for your sourcing activities and ensure that both you and your suppliers stay aligned.

Your time zone is first set when your oboloo platform was first created. This would have been set by the person within your organisation who originally set up oboloo.
