Hi,
I've come across an unusual issue in multiple flows I have where I'm using utcNow() and convertfromutc to set today's date for a date field in Dynamics. This has worked great until recently when I've noticed that the actual date in Dynamics is getting set as yesterday's date instead of today's like it should. I've confirmed that in the Flow it really is setting the date in the output as today but something happens when it goes to update the field in Dynamics. Dynamics is set to the EST time zone but that still doesn't explain why it's a day behind. For example, I just ran a test where it's 7am EST and it still set it to yesterday's date. Here are some screenshots of the issue. What am I missing?:

Hi @phildrake198 ,
I agree with @ChristianAbata 's suggestion that you should sue the convert time zone action to convert the utc() time to your local time:

Hi Christian,
I don't have Dynamics Finance and Operations, it's Dynamics CE which doesn't seem to have the same navigation option referenced by that article. Here's what I already set though:
Also the date field is set to "User Local" which I believe means it should check the time zone set for the local user viewing that record. Is this not true?
