Use Local time components to display local time in a specific time zone. This is particularly useful for dealing with contacts and accounts from different regions.

Example. Set up the Local time component that displays the local time of the requester to the request page.

  3. Select the time style to display on the app page in the Style parameter. For this example, select “Caption large.”
  4. Select the font format in the Format parameter. For this example, select “Normal.”
  5. Select the time alignment option in the Align parameter. For this example, select left.
  6. Select the font color in the Text color parameter. For this example, change it to blue.
  7. Select the background color in the Background color parameter. For this example, leave it transparent.
  8. Click the btn_visible.png or btn_not_visible.png button in the Visibility group to make the component visible or invisible by default on the page, respectively. For this example, leave the component visible.
  9. Click Setup conditions in the Visibility group to set up element business rules. For this example, do not add business rules. Learn more about setting up business rules in a separate article: Set up business rules.
  10. View the unique local time code in the page schema in the Element code parameter. The parameter is populated automatically and non-editable.

As a result, Creatio will add the Local time component that displays the local time of the requester to the request page.
