SAP is often very unhelpful in that set dates/times come with task
information. Make sure all task Constraints are set to As Soon As Possible.

The default start time is only used if a date is entered for a Start or
Finish. The defaults then provide the time.

Hi Mustang, hope you are well.

As well as changing the standard calendar times, have you had a chance to
check the time change has been reflected in the 'change working times' dialog
box for the standard calendar?

To further highlight the non-working days from working days, the following
link might be of interest to you:

Hope you find your resolution here.

Kind regards
