Westi - Thanks for the tip!
I found a phone based administration guide online - on page 87-88 you will find the instructions for how to change date and time through the phones. There are many other features and functions that can be programmed through the phones, see table of contents on pg. 8 for a full list.
Note* phone based administration must be done through one of the first two extensions on the system.

I think that link refers to the Quick Mode in the "pre-8.0" essential edition, now equivalent to the Basic Edition. It uses a different TUI without most of the standard features and behaviour of IPO.
To change the time you have to set a phone as autoadministrator in the user main page, then follow the menu options on the phone

F***... well back to my original question then, is there a way to change time and date through the phones on IP office 500v2 r8.1 essential edition. Customer is in Montreal and thus we are not able to go on site and there system was not networked on installation as there IT department did not want it to be. So can this be done through the phones?

Phones in these series (excluding the 1403/1603 models) can set the system time and date when the extension user is configured with System Phone Rights. The user is able to access menu options to set the time, date and time offset by selecting Features | Phone User | System Administration.
