I. Personal Timezone
Each user can select a timezone in their settings. This setting determines the timezone displayed by the platform, including meeting times.

II. Organizational Timezone
The organizational timezone is the default personal timezone for new users. This can be set by organizational admins only.
All users added to the organization after an organizational timezone is selected see meeting times converted to this timezone until and unless they select another in their user settings.
This can be set in organizational settings.
To set an organizational timezone as an admin:
Click Settings on the leftmost, main menu panel
Click the field beneath Default Timezone for New Users to drop down options
Click desired timezone from this dropdown
Click Save
III. Meeting Page Timezones
Each meeting can have a timezone set during creation.
This selection does not determine the timezone displayed to viewers on the platform. Instead, meeting times are converted to the personal timezone set in the viewer's user settings.
For example, if a meeting is set to begin at 2:00 PM CT, a meeting page visitor whose personal timezone is EST sees a 3:00 PM EST start time.
These conversions ensure that each meeting page visitor sees the correct time for their timezone.
To set a timezone for a meeting:

IV. Calendar Event Timezone
The timezone displayed on calendar events for Boardable meetings is that used by the external calendar program of the invitee.
This timezone can only be updated in the external calendar program's settings. It cannot be changed using the Boardable platform.
V. Agenda PDF & Board Packet Timezones
The meeting creator's timezone determines the time stamps shown on agenda and Board Packet PDFs.
It's possible for this not to match the timezone selected in the meeting's settings, or in the viewer's settings.
For a timezone to be used in an agenda PDF, the meeting creator's user settings must be updated to list this timezone. The meeting creator's timezone can be updated as described in section 1.
