Erratic behaviour of timestamps
For a test saved search of type "Transaction", we've discovered that the timezone setting in user preferences affects custom fields and tranDate.searchValue in a way that seems to be inconsistent. Quoting from the XML response, with timezone -03:00:
<platformCommon:lastModifiedDate>
<platformCore:searchValue>2017-10-16T06:39:00.000-07:00</platformCore:searchValue>
</platformCommon:lastModifiedDate>
<platformCommon:tranDate>
<platformCore:searchValue>2017-03-28T19:00:00.000-07:00</platformCore:searchValue>
</platformCommon:tranDate>
and with timezone +02:00:
<platformCommon:lastModifiedDate>
<platformCore:searchValue>2017-10-16T06:39:00.000-07:00</platformCore:searchValue>
</platformCommon:lastModifiedDate>
