NetSuite Admin Tip | Using SuiteQL to Retrieve Time Zone Offset and Session Time Zone

These functions allow you to determine time zone offsets for specific regions and to retrieve the session's current time zone, which can be essential for managing dates and times accurately in your NetSuite reports and scripts.
