Change the time zone of your reports

You can change your account time zone to view a report in any time zone that's relevant to you. This can be helpful to prevent your weekend reports from being skewed by traffic from Fridays or Mondays. You can also view your reports in the billing time zone (i.e., Pacific time, PST).

Before you change your account time zone

Remember that when changing your time zone:

• Account time zone changes only affect data from the time you make the change. If you change your time zone from EST to PST on April 3, and then run a report from April 1 to April 5, all the data in your report before April 3 will be in EST. The data after April 3 will be in the newly selected account time zone or PST.
• Any reports that include the day you changed the account time zone might show a flat spot or spike in the data. This anomaly is caused by the time shift and does not affect your payments. You won’t have this anomaly when viewing reports in the billing time zone (PST).
• Your existing saved and scheduled reports are automatically migrated to the new time zone. Going forward, your saved or scheduled reports will show the time zone that’s being used when they're saved.
• Reports on your Home page are shown in your account time zone. Your payments are calculated and shown in the billing time zone (PST).
