Terminal System Time

[soleit]

Hi there Aloha masters,

I just wanted to seek help regarding on the POS system date advancing 1 day ahead.
I'm using aloha 6.77 on windows 7 32bit.

the issue was reported to me that there was an early EOD and the date were not matched to current date.
-i stopped FOH and changed back the date manually.
-Aloha manager system setting, POS is synchronized to Back office time, no daylight saving time also ticked
-i changed the date to Aloha.ini to current date from data and new data folder on aloha server then i refreshed.
-also renamed the dated folder that was created.

everything was running fine(date and time were correct) then after several hours EOD was triggered again. now both system date and DOB is now 1 day ahead.

i'm confused what is causing the EOD to trigger, Auto EOD is set to run at 28:00 (4am).

I'm not sure, is there any way to check it?

both Server and terminal are on the same timezone (UTC+04:00) Abu Dhabi, Muscat.

for now i tried unticking synchronize POS with back office time in aloha manager.
it is runnning fine but the Terminal time is way behind. say server time is at 11:00pm but POS time is around 7:00pm
mannually correcting the time but after few hour the terminal time will be behind.

stop ctlsvr
del timezone.ini
set timezone correct on boh
start ctlsvr
set aloha to use international DST
refresh
stop foh
set timezone on master
set correct time on master
start FOH

That should get all terms to have correct time.
