Defining Locale-Specific Formatting

Access the Locale Defaults page (PeopleTools, and then Personalization, and then Personalization Local Defaults).

This example illustrates the fields and controls on the Local Defaults page.

Local Defaults page

Use this page to assign default values for personalization options based on locale code.

To more easily view defaults for a particular locale, click the Locale Code column heading to sort the data on this page by the locale code.

Note:

For some international locales, a space character is used as a digit group separator (for example, thousands). However, the PeopleSoft Pure Internet Architecture interprets a single space in a field as a null value. To use the space character as a digit group separator, define the override value as a space between single quotation marks. This personalization can be defined at the system-wide, locale-default, or individual user level. This special treatment of the space character currently only takes effect for the digit group separator user option.
