+## Overview
+This script converts a UTC date/time field in ServiceNow to the local time of the user that the script runs under using GlideDateTime.
+This distinction is important in certain contexts, such as asynchronous business rules, scheduled jobs, or background scripts, where the executing user may differ from the record owner.
+It is useful for notifications, reports, dashboards, or any situation where users need localized timestamps that reflect the correct timezone.
+
+## Table and Field Example
+Table: incident
+Field: opened_at (stored in UTC)
+
+## How It Works
+The script queries the incident table for the most recent active incident.
+Retrieves the opened_at field (in UTC).
+Creates a GlideDateTime object to convert this UTC timestamp into the local time of the executing user.
+Logs both the original UTC time and the converted local time.
+
+## Key Notes
+Conversion is always based on the timezone of the user executing the script.
+In asynchronous operations (background scripts, scheduled jobs, async business rules), this is the system user running the script.
