I see an error quite often when looking at the command history of our IOS devices that reads:

"Settings - Time ZoneThe setting being applied is restricted."

Any thoughts on what might cause that?

Thanks in advance,

Rob

I ran into this issue a while ago. From memory (someone correct me if I'm wrong), you will get this error when setting the time zone in your PreStage enrollement and then enforcing Automatic date and time in the restrictions. It seems that they have conflicts if they are both enabled. To resolve it, disable Automatic date and time in the restrictions.

Would it not be better to leave automatic in place and not manual set it in case people travel?

It depends on your user's needs, but in that case I wouldn't set the time zone in the PreStage and then enforce Automatic date and time in the restrictions.
