Synchronize your Time Zones

Top  Previous  Next

We've discovered that running Campground Master on computers with different time zones will affect the time (and possibly the dates) stored in the database.  This is because the times are stored relative to GMT.  For instance if you make a transaction at 1:00 PM on a computer that's set to east coast time, then when you load that database on a computer set to west coast time it will show up as being made at 11:00AM.

 

We will correct this in the next version -- but in the meantime, make sure the time zone is set the same on all computers -- especially if you're networked.  To check and change the time zone, you can usually right-click on the clock in the lower right corner (on the Windows taskbar), select Adjust Date/Time, and select the Time Zone tab.  If you find any that are already set to a different zone, then close Campground Master first, change the time zone setting, and then re-open Campground Master.  If you're networked, also 'Request a Full Database refresh' on each client computer afterwards (under Maintenance / Network Functions).
