I have a managed property that is having problems with date. The field is set to DateOnly. The item always uses Date-1 .

enter image description here

Here is a similar question, Search returns wrong date (date -1) and have a solution if it were to be coded by explicitly adding a +1 day. Are there any workarounds using out-of-the-box?

Read below, may be a workaround works for you.

What is the work around to resolve this problem?

This can be resolved simply as follows

  • Regional settings can be set at web application level, site collection or site level
  • In order to minimize the effect of changing the regional setting, you can create search center at site collection level or at site vel.
  • Change the time zone to a zone that is at least 1 hour ahead to the time zone where the FAST farm is located. It is fun to analyze the queries after changing the time zone. Go ahead and play with it.

  • Are there any implications in changing the time zone? It does work but I am hesitant to use it as a solution since it is global and could affect other things.

I created a calculated column to adjust the variance of the date instead of the suggested changing the time zone. I think it is safer to do it this way. If anyone have a better idea, please feel free to suggest answers and I will update this post accordingly.
