On that note: Could you add Arizona as this time zone never changes!

I wonder as well.

I was flabbergasted when I found that setting in AC. Can't believe there's a setting that should be manually changed twice a year.

The date and time settings are available in Able so you can override the actual server time. If you have several AbleCommerce installations on a server in EST, then you can use your own time setting based on your company location.

That is why it's a manual change. The server time can change, but the store time will be what you set it to.

This has been brought up before, and it would need to be a new feature with an option to disable since AZ (and perhaps others to follow) don't participate.
Thanks for your support!
