Default Subtracting Hours from SaveDate

Hi,
I have a similar problem to https://www.msofficeforums.com/word/...date-word.html - more about adding/subtracting hours

We are a global company opening and editing Word reports (documents) that live on a US Server (New Jersey)

Currently I have been using the standard Word SAVEDATE field and it works ok for US and Europe, but now Australia is using the same reports, Word is stamping yesterday's date into the Word field. I assume this is because Australia is about 15 hours ahead of United States and the Word document, although edited in Australia, is saved back to the US server

So, I need a way to determine where the report is being edited and make sure the local date is saved, not the server date. Then I need an almighty IF statement (?) around the SaveDate?

Any pointers would be helpful, thank you
