Changing date format in locale

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

Date, currency format and so on depends on locale. If locale changes formats change as well.

But is possible to change these formats in locale itself (change, for example, short date format in locale en_US to dd/mm/yyyy instead of mm/dd/yyyy)?

Hi Price

The date format is user dependent. It may vary from user to user depending upon the settings applied at the time of user creation. This can however be changed from transaction SU01 ( defaults tab).

Also please check the following link:

and

I hope this helps

Hi,

The server is standalone J2EE Engine. And I want to change format for all users who are using en_US locale.

Hai,

Do you want to change the format for users?

Then do it from SU01 - Defaults tab.
