Issue: 

Task Finish Date do not consider the user timezone when Date/Time Format Scale is "Day"

Steps to reproduce: 

  1. Login to CA PPM as Admin. 
  2. Go to the Object --> Tasks --> Views 
  3. Go to the [Fields] for the "Task Properties" view and Set the "Date/Time Format Scale" for both Start and Finish attribute as "Day Time". 
  4. Do the same for "Task List" view. 
  5. Login as User X whose Time Zone is set as GMT. 
  6. Create a new project or open an existing one. 
  7. Go to the Task tab and create a new Task. 
  8. Select the Start and Finish Date and select a time for the Finish date 
  9. Now logout from that user who was in GMT Time Zone. 
  10. Login with User A, whose Time Zone is (GMT+13:00). 

Expected result: The finish date for that Task should be same for both User A and User B as both are in same timezone

Actual result: The finish date for the Task is not same for User A and User B. For User B, as the finish date is not having day and time format, so the timezone change is not getting considered
