When you open the appointments they appear at the correct time. This issue also affects the view when the time 'falls back' to standard time, but only if the dual time zones are 3 or more hours apart.įortunately Outlook uses GMT and time zone offsets to calculate appointment times and reminders are based off the default time zone, not the secondary zone, so it's unlikely to cause missed appointments (if you use reminders). The entire 24 hour period uses the same offset and the first day in the view determines the offset. This view anomaly occurs because the default is a zone west of the secondary and Outlook takes into consideration that DST goes into effect in the earlier time zone and adjusts the times using the wrong offset. If you use a multi-day view with Sunday as the first day, the Sunday time scale is used, so it appears there is a 4 hour time difference each day. If you view multiple dates and begin with that Sunday, the (incorrect) offset is used on the time scale so it appears Outlook has the times wrong.įor example, if your default time zone is Pacific and Eastern is your secondary time, when Sunday rolls around, the time scale incorrectly displays a 4 hr time difference all day. When you complete your invitation, on the Meeting tab, click Send.When you use dual time zones in Outlook and the default zone is west of the secondary zone, an extra hour is added to the time scale offset for the Sunday DST goes into effect.
