As a follow-up to our May 12 posting about the V4 release [http://adwordsapi.blogspot.com/2006/05/api-version-4-now-available.html], we wanted to let you all know that the setLocalTimezone [http://www.google.com/apis/adwords/developer/AccountService.html#setLocalTimezone] method has been enabled.

All new AdWords accounts are now required to specify their account's time zone during the sign-up process. Therefore, this method should be used on existing accounts that have not yet set their account time zone.

Please note that existing account owners will have until July 30 to set their accounts' time zones. The setLocalTimezone method will be disabled after this date.

If you would like to learn more about our new Local Time Zone support, please read our April 27 posting [http://adwordsapi.blogspot.com/2006/04/adwords-support-for-local-time-zones.html] on the subject.
