Can date/time fields display the time zone?

Is there a setting in Jira that adds the time zone to the date/time field when viewing an issue?

I understand the fields display based on the current user's time zone preference, however on cross-country teams, it would help if this value could be visible at a glance. 

 

Thanks!

Hey @Ashley Honeycutt 

Date Time fields are always displayed in the user's local time based on their profile. They can update their profile accordingly here: https://support.atlassian.com/jira-software-cloud/docs/manage-your-jira-personal-settings/

Hi @Jovin

Thank you. Unfortunately this does not quite get us what we need. I know there are some properties that are configurable (such as displaying absolute date/time vs relative date/time). 

I'm hoping there's a property that will append the time zone. It would be very helpful for distributed/remote teams who frequently share their screens when planning work.
