About timezone regions
A timezone region is different from a timezone. In the Mountain timezone of the United States, for example, the state of Arizona does not observe Daylight Saving Time, whereas the majority of the rest of the timezone does.
The administrator defines timezone regions, which the user can then select when scheduling reports.
