Hi Prasad
Answer to your first question (How to get date in user time zone)
1. If you are looking for current date and time now() function always returns time base on logged in users time zone
2. But if you want to explicitly convert date in users time zone you can use below expression
=local(ri!date,usertimezone(ri!user))
Answer to your second question (date with 0 time offset)
gmt(todatetime(ri!date))
Thanks
