Date of meeting appears as previous day on role reports

I am currently VPE at First Hanseatics (Club 561, hamburg.toastmastersclubs.org), and noticed that the "Date" column is incorrect when I am looking at role reports. The date always appears as one day earlier than the actual Agenda date, throughout the report.

I'm not sure if this is a timezone issue, or if I have some setting incorrect.

Of course now that I know about it, I can mentally correct it, but at first it confused me quite a bit.

Steps to reproduce:
  1. Go to the current Agenda.
  2. Click on "Download Role Report" button at the top, which opens a dialogue
  3. Select "Member Role Report (html)", either for single member or all
  4. Select start date, click "Run/Download", which opens a new window (and starts a print dialogue, which I always cancel)

Expected outcome: listing of members and the dates that they filled a role according to the agenda.
Actual outcome: each date is "one day before" the actual agenda date. For example, our last meeting on 4th of August is displayed as "08/03/2015".

Thanks!

Hello there!

You need to probably go into the admin section and set up your time zone.

Hi Linda, thanks for the suggestion. I have just checked, and the time zone is correctly set to "Europe/Berlin". Is there some other setting?

Hi Linda, I have read that now, thanks for the info :-)
It's not a problem on the agenda itself, but rather on the role report.
Also, I've just discovered that this problem is also present on the "Member Speech Report (html)" when downloading reports.

Would it be helpful if I included more screenshots that showed the exact problem as I've described?
