Workflow State - Set Properties - Setting Date to "read from state transition" sets date to yesterday

Hi All,

Have an interesting one. I have a few states in various workflows that use the Set Properties action to set a date field to the date of the state transition. when the state transition takes place however it is setting the date to date of transition -1. Is anyone having a similar issue?

the Last modified in the below was the datetime of the above state transition

  • Just a guess: this may be somehow related to time zone conversions between the client and the server.

    If you're running a self‑hosted M‑Files deployment, make sure the Windows time zone on the server is configured correctly.

    I also recommend checking that you're using the latest M‑Files version, as a couple of time zone related fixes were included in last year's releases.

    If the problem persists, please contact your M‑Files reseller so they can investigate further.
