Hi everybody,

I have the following object

 $scope.transactionObject = {
                    accountNameHash: '',
                    operatorCode: userService.opCode.trim(),
                    salespoint: userService.salespoint,
                    message: '',
                    paymentType: 0,
                    transactionDate: new Date(),
                    invoicesToPay: []
                };

I can see (if I don't apply the date filter to display) that it shows GMT - 5 hours.

Anyway, when I try to save my data, the date is actually 5 hours later than my current date. I am not doing anything special except that I am using a directive with the following template:

@using Siriusware.Resources;

<h3 style="text-align:center;">{{metaData.title}}</h3>

<label class="control-label col-md-2" title="@Labels.operatorLabel">@Labels.operatorLabel:</label>

<div class="col-md-3">
    <select class="form-control" ng-model="transactionData.operatorCode"
            required
            name="operator" id="operator" data-no:dirty-check
            ng-options="t.opCode as t.opCode for t in metaData.operators"></select>
</div>

<label class="control-label col-md-2" title="@Labels.message">@Labels.message:</label>
<div class="col-md-5">
    <input type="text" name="message" id="message"
           ng-model="transactionData.message"
           class="form-control"
           data-no:dirty-check
           ng-maxlength="20" />
    <div class="field-validation-error">
        <span ng-show="formObject.message.$error.maxlength">@String.Format(Messages.cannotExceed, Labels.message, 20)</span>
    </div>
</div>

<label class="control-label col-md-2" title="@Labels.salespoint">@Labels.salespoint:</label>
<div class="col-md-3">
    <select class="form-control" ng-model="transactionData.salespoint" name="salespoint"
            id="salespoint" data-no:dirty-check required
            ng-options="t.salespoint as t.salespoint for t in metaData.salespoints"></select>
</div>

<label class="control-label col-md-2">@Labels.transactionDate:</label>
<div class="col-md-5">
    <data-sm:date-time-picker ng-model="transactionData.transactionDate"
                              is-date-range="false"
                              form="formObject"
                              placeholder="mm/dd/yy hh:mm:ss"
                              pick-time="true"
                              show-bod="true"
                              show-eod="true"
                              show-now="true"
                              name="transactionDate"
                              data-no:dirty-check
                              required>
    </data-sm:date-time-picker>
    <div class="field-validation-error">
        <span ng-show="formObject.transactionDate.$error.required">@String.Format(Messages.isRequired, Labels.transactionDate)</span>
    </div>
</div>
<div class="clearfix"></div>

I am going to check how other dates are saved in our application but do you see why would it add 5 extra hours to the date?

UPDATE. Tested in other places where we use the date time picker without extra directive and the date is saved 5 hours later as well. I think most likely the problem is in our date time picker directive.
