Configure Time Zones for Business Structure Export

The Business Structure Represents the logical structure of an organization as it concerns staffing. It contains the locations and jobs to which an employee may be assigned. Export integration must include the time zone for locations that are mapped to Institutions in TeleStaff.

Note: Define the default time zone for all locations in Main Menu  > Administration > Application Setup > System Configuration > Time Zones.

To include the time zone for the integration, do one of the following:

• Only if the organization does not use Institution Focus, or it does but operates in only one time zone, do the following:
  1. Do not set the time zone in the business structure.
  2. Configure the _DefaultTimeZone process property for the Business Structure Export integration; see Configure the TeleStaff Business Structure Export Integration.
  3. Do not configure the BusinessStructureExport-v1_TimeZone cross-reference table.
• Only if the organization uses Institution Focus and operates across multiple time zones, do the following:
  1. Activate and display the Time Zone selector as follows:

     Select Main Menu  > Administration > Application Setup > System Configuration > System Settings > the Business Structure tab.

     Edit the site.BusinessStructure.DisplayTimeZoneField setting:

     • True = Display the Time Zone selector when you edit a location.
     • False (default) = Do not display the Time Zone selector.

     Click Tap Save.

  2. Specify the time zone for locations that are mapped to the Institutions; see Locations.
  3. Return to the Integration Template Designer for this integration.
  4. Do not configure the _DefaultTimeZone process property.

  5. Configure the BusinessStructureExport-v1_TimeZone cross-reference table to map time zones between the systems as follows:

     Select Override.

     Enter the time zones to map from Dimensions to TeleStaff Institutions.
