iTunes Connect Price Change Error: "Price Tier Effective or End Dates in the past are not allowed"

Question

So I'm trying to do a one week price drop promotion for one of my paid apps, but I keep getting this error that says "Price Tier Effective or End Dates in the past are not allowed".

I tried all sorts of date ranges & the only one that seems to work is a single price tier from the current date to eternity, even a schedule with two price tiers wouldn't work.

I'm running OSX 10.10.5, tried it on FireFox 41.0 and Safari 8.0.8 (10600.8.9), and still couldn't get it to work.

Apple has updated their dashboard a few days ago & could this be a bug caused by the new update? Has anyone experienced the same issue or found a workaround?

Answer 1

It seems a timezone problem. If you change your timezone to some other timezone that is already on the next day, you'll be able to set the times without problem.

So, a temporary fix is to change your timezone to something like New Zealand.
