Hi,

You cannot convert time in Scoped application

You will have to create script include in Global Scope and make it Accessible from All Scopes

Then call it from your Scoped application

var ConvertTimeZone = Class.create();
ConvertTimeZone.prototype = {
	initialize: function() {
	},

	convertTime: function(){

		var time = new GlideDateTime();
		gs.info('GMT time is->'+time);
		var tz = Packages.java.util.TimeZone.getTimeZone('PST');
		time.setTZ(tz);
		var timeZoneOffSet = time.getTZOffset();
		time.setNumericValue(time.getNumericValue() + timeZoneOffSet);
		gs.info('PST time is->'+time);
		return time;

	},

	type: 'ConvertTimeZone'
};

Call it like this

var pstTime = new global.ConvertTimeZone().converTime();

You can convert time in Scoped application as well.

Try this:

var strConvertedDateTime = new GlideScheduleDateTime(new GlideDateTime()).convertTimeZone("UTC", "PST");
var gdtConvertedDateTime = new GlideDateTime(strConvertedDateTime)

gs.info("Converted Time: "+gdtConvertedDateTime);
