Impact of changing glide.system.locale in production system

[sreedharkaliset]

Hi,

what is the impact of changing glide.system.locale in a live production system.

I want single currency to be used for calculations and so I already modified the following properties.

glide.i18n.single_currency

glide.i18n.single_currency.code

com.glide.financial_management.currency_code

But i still see some fields displaying values in USD and not the currency used in single currency code.

There are some projects ,programs and portfolios for which resource and cost planning is done. What will be the impact on these records.

Please let me know the impact if i change this property.

Hi Scott

the user locale is not determined by the language ('preferred_language') but by the country code ('country').

The reference currency is either determined by the corresponding property setting or if empty by the Java default which usually is en.US. (See for the following link under reference currency: Session and reference currency )

This may explain why for the UK user USD is displayed.

Also you may check whether the Russian user has 'country' set to Russia therefore having RUB displayed.

Cheers,

Andreas
