New features and enhancements

Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) time zone

RoboHelp Server supports storing information in the database in the UTC time zone. An optional parameter (TimezoneforRHS), when configured, displays information in the UI in a user's local time zone while still allowing database information to be stored in UTC time. For more information, see the Time zone configuration.
