# Enabling timezone selection on documents

> Override the query timezone for a document using the timezone picker, allowing viewers to change how time-based data is displayed.

The timezone picker overrides the query timezone for a single document without changing your profile settings. When enabled, a timezone menu appears in the document header and dashboard footer so you and your viewers can switch the timezone used for all queries in the document.

## Enabling the timezone picker

To use the timezone picker, enable all the following settings:

<Steps>
  <Step title="Enable the User-specific Timezones connection setting" noAnchor>
    An Organization Admin or Connection Admin must enable the underlying connection's **User-specific Timezones** setting. See [Timezone conversion](/connect-data/timezones) for more information.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Enable the Timezone override organization setting" noAnchor>
    An Organization Admin must enable the **Timezone override** default document ability in **Settings > Content permissions**. See [Content permissions](/administration/content-permissions) for more information.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Enable the Timezone override document setting" noAnchor>
    A user with Editor, Manager, or Owner permissions on the document must enable the document's **Timezone override** setting. See [Dashboard settings](/visualize-present/dashboards/settings) for more information.
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Note>
  Embed users will have access to the timezone picker when all of the above settings are enabled.
</Note>

## Using the timezone picker

When all three settings are enabled, the timezone picker displays in the document's header and the footer of the dashboard:

</Frame>

Use the picker to select one of the following:

* **Viewer's timezone** - Each viewer's profile timezone
* **UTC** - Coordinated Universal Time
* **A specific timezone** - For example, `America/Denver`

Your selection persists when navigating between the dashboard and workbook in the document, ensuring a consistent timezone experience as you move between viewing and editing your analysis.

## Limitations

Timezone selections are not currently reflected in deliveries, alerts, and downloads.
