When a report is subscribed to, the email is sent on the BI GATEWAY REFRESH time. That's ok, except that the data IN the report is based on UTC. So, a 5pm PST/PDT is after midnight. If the report is a "MTD" report, like so many are, then the data is BLANK because it's a new day UTC time.

The subscription configuration by time zone would be of great help, for the information and reports that have to be sent and not having to be modifying in time changes.

Yes, removing the "All times are expressed in (UTC-08:00) Pacific Standard Time" and letting the user choose the time zone in the schedule of the subscriptions would be amazing! Our reports are worldwide and handling daylight changes are very annoying.

I completely agree and it has been making all of my subscription based reports useless. I'm can't really understand why this isn't a feature
