The order in which records are sorted in your Oracle ATG Web Commerce databases may control the order in which the corresponding data is presented in user interfaces. If you are configuring Oracle ATG Web Commerce for use in different language locales, consider how the sorting order of your database records will affect user interfaces.

For example, if you enter non-ASCII characters in the names of content administration projects, those project names will not appear in the expected order unless you configure your database with a sorting order that corresponds to the language used.

Find information about setting the character set and multilingual sort order in the documentation for your database software.
