Hi @Anonymous ,

 

You can use DateTimeZone.SwitchZone function to switch your table date time column [DateKey] to local time via copy and paste the code below , assuming the " 8 " is hours , and "10" is minutes ,which is the changed hours between IST timezone and EST timezone.

 

DateTimeZone.SwitchZone(DateTime.AddZone([DateKey], 0),-8 ,10)
