I have an app that creates a meeting and adds it to the Outlook calendar. The app shows the meeting time as 11.4 from 10 AM until 2 PM. The meeting shows on the calendar on 11.4 at 10 AM but when I open the item it shows 3 PM Coordinated Universal Time. Can someone explain why this happens and is it possible to get the item to display as Eastern Standard Time?

I checked my Outlook and it's set to Eastern Standard Time. Office 365 settings are set to Eastern. The SharePoint site where I save my data to a list is the same region. I based the below formula on a Shane Young video. Is this the problem? If it is, why does the item display in the calendar correctly?

Office365Outlook.V4CalendarPostItem(LookUp(Office365Outlook.CalendarGetTables().value, DisplayName = "Calendar").Name, txtNMCustName.Text & " Planning Session", DateAdd(varStart,TimeZoneOffset(), Minutes), DateAdd(varEnd, TimeZoneOffset(),Minutes), "(UTC) Coordinated Universal Time", {location: txtNMStreet.Text & ", " & txtNMCity.Text & " " & txtNMZip.Text, body: txtNMPhone.Text & ", " & txtNMEmail.Text & "<br><br>" & txtNMNotes.Text})

I found a post that mentions some kind of a conflict that occurs between the web and desktop version of Outlook. Doesn't look like there is a way around it.
