# Change the time zone choice list

Wherever users have a choice of time zone, the choices are populated using the **Time Zone** choice list on the `User [sys_user]` table. Not all time zones appear by default.

## About this task

To add or remove time zones from the list of time zones:

## Procedure

1.  Navigate to **All** > **User Administration** > **Users** and open any user record, or click **New**.

    Notice that the default time zone is **System \(America/Los\_Angeles\)**.

2.  Right-click the Time zone label, and then select **Configure Choices**.

3.  Highlight the desired time zone from the **Available** or **Selected** lists, and then **Add** or **Remove** the time zones as needed.
