How to shift origin?

Hello all, 

I am simulation particles filled in a cylinder. I wanted to print potential energy of the system, but it is negative. 

This is because origin of the geometry is by default considered as the centre of mass. 

Is there any way to shift origin to the geometry bottom corner, so that my all particles have positive coordinates. 

I tried "local origin offset" option in geometries. 

But it doesn't work still I got negative potential energy (mgh) hence, negative total energy.
