SYMPTOMS
When you run a report by using the SMS Web Reporting Tool, the report time may be different from the report time that is listed when the report is run in the Microsoft Systems Management Server (SMS) 2.0 Administrator console. The extent of the time difference depends on your time zone and on whether daylight saving time is in effect.



CAUSE
This problem occurs because the SMS Web Reporting Tool does not translate the local time correctly.
