Edit - Database Administrators Stack Exchange

You are not logged in. Your edit will be placed in a queue until it is peer reviewed.

We welcome edits that make the post easier to understand and more valuable for readers. Because community members review edits, please try to make the post substantially better than how you found it, for example, by fixing grammar or adding additional resources and hyperlinks.

For most cases this is correct, but consider daylight saving time. If you record a time in the summer, in the winter it will be shown as a different time. This is a bug that was in Exchange/Outlook for many years frustrating customers for whom the exact time could mean winning or losing a patent. So if that's not what you want, you will need to know what the timezone was at the time this time was recorded. Ideally, you will even know this information for the time at which the time was recorded, as you may need historical information on timezones, which sometimes change.
