# Time zone of a workspace

Updated: 2026-11-02

Every workspace works in its own time zone. Admins set it under **Settings › General › Time Zone**. New workspaces start with the zone chosen when they were created.

**What follows the zone**

- What counts as today and overdue, and the days on My Work.
- All dates and times shown in the workspace, for everyone in it, wherever they are.
- The day a worklog counts for when you give a start time, and the times in the Worklogs view.
- Reports, CSV and PDF exports, and dates in emails.
- When a new day and a new month of API and MCP calls begin (Plan & Billing).
- When the nightly backup runs: the first check after 2 at night in that zone.
- Claude and other MCP clients: `whoami` tells them the zone; days they send, such as for `log_work`, are in it.

**What doesn't move when you change the zone**

- **Time already logged keeps its day.** A worklog stays on the day it counted for when it was logged. Its start time is shown in the new zone, so near midnight the time can look as if it belongs to the neighbouring day.
- **Plain dates** such as due dates and release dates stay the same date.

**People in other zones** see the workspace's times, not their own. That way "today" and reports mean the same for everyone in the workspace.
