Sabina: I am sorry we do not have that option.
KamalChandran: Will it be possible for you to change my adwords time zone?

KamalChandran: Is it possible to de-link the accounts and then change the time zones
Sabina: Yes, you can do that.
Sabina: However, if you link the accounts again then it will change according your AdWords account.
KamalChandran: what would be the drawback then..........
KamalChandran: I think the adwords data would not be reported correctly if I have two different time zones.......for eg:- conversion etc
KamalChandran: Am I right?
Sabina: Yes.
KamalChandran: what would you suggest, is it better to run both the accounts at the same time zone?
Sabina: If you link the accounts then the time zones will be the same.
