How to get the timezone from client

[Markus Bala]

Hi,

I noticed that setting timezone in user preference is missing.
However, in the documentation still show the setting.

Back to topic,
My situation is to print the printer date/time in the report.
If in the libreoffice, I set the date from the report. It will take the server date but server's date is UTC timezone.

So, I will custom printed_date but how to get the timezone from client show that can show the correct time?

Best regard,
Markus Bala

It is a mistake, the field has been removed long time ago:

You can not know the timezone of the client because it is the OS
timezone on which it runs. The best option is to use a timezone stored
on some record, for example you can use the one on company.
