How to make a default selection for the Time Zone property

  • Updated

This KB article shows how to make a default selection for the Time Zone property or remove it from being a required field when editing a user.

To make a default selection for the 'time zone' user custom property:  

  1. Go to Workarea > Settings > Configuration > Custom Properties to display the View User Custom Properties screen.
  2. Select the Time Zone property.
    Inside the list here is a check box that says first option is not a valid selection. This will stop the default option of "select" from not being acceptable.
  3. Uncheck the box.
  4. Scroll down the list of time zones and select the one you want to use as default and move it to the top of the list.
