Regional Settings

Regional settings are used to configure settings which control the number, date, currency, and language formats for a locale.

In the Regional Settings page, the Identifier list varies according to languages activated in the Oracle Taleo Enterprise Edition products. For example, if an organization only supports English (en) and French (fr), the Identifier list will contain en and fr as well as all specific locale identifiers related to fr and en, that is, fr-FR, fr-CA, en-GB, en-Au, etc.

The regional settings of a locale consist of four elements:

  • Number: Defines the decimal symbol, digit grouping, maximum number of decimals, negative number format, etc.

  • Currency: Defines the decimal symbol used for currencies, the default currency, the maximum number of decimals for currencies, etc.

  • Date: Defines the date format used in the application. A date can be represented by text, number or a combination of both.

  • Language: With each locale, comes a set of predefined values that are specific to the specified language, regardless of the country or region.
