Show time is different for Dashboard and Statistics

Recently, I meet an interesting problem about show time. The show time is different for the Statistics and Dashboard. See my attachment files. In the table, the time is correct and this time is from my events from database. However, when I click the Dashboard, then the corresponding time is changed to another time, which is 8 hours earlier than in table. It's kind of strange. Could someone know how to fix this problem? Thanks a lot!

There are many time-based considerations and settings. I'm not sure exactly where your breakdown is but it may be as simple as you setting your own user's Time zone setting by going clicking on <Your Login> -> Preferences -> Time zone. Also read about more considerations here:

what is your Splunk server timezone? You probably are in PST and Splunk might be converting your time to PST(splunk server).
