After upgrading to Utah we noticed that the "Date and time format" does not display out local setting. We contacted ServiceNow Support that told us its not possible to show it in our local date/time format. You an see the error on the picture:
As a workaround we where wondering if there is a workaround where we can hide the menu option via the id, id="datetime-select", using a UI Page or Client Script.
Thanks up front 🙂

Ahh shame. But thanks for trying.
We have made a hopefully temporary workaround with a Before BR, that if a user tries to set the date/time, we abort the action. Not pretty, but it works.

Sometimes a 'if it works, it works' is good enough. 🙂
