Filtering Is Not Properly Persisted after Saving and Loading the State of the Grid
Environment
| Product | Progress Kendo UI Grid |
| Operating System | Windows 10 64bit |
| Browser | Google Chrome |
| Browser Version | 60.0.3112.101 |
Description
The filters of the Grid are not correctly persisted after its state is saved and loaded. How can I properly persist the filtering and avoid the rendering of incorrect data in the Grid?
Cause
The JSON.stringify() method that is internally used by the kendo.stringify() method utilizes the Date.prototype.toISOString function which represents time in unmodified UTC format.
Solution
Programmatically apply the time offset before the filter is set again.

<div id="grid"></div>
