Configure date pattern

You can configure the date pattern for each culture implemented in WorkZone Client and Captia Web Client. The configuration is set up in the module Owner and is globally effective but you can deviate from this configuration. In the User module you can define an individual date pattern for each user and thereby deviating from the global configuration.

You enter the date patterns on the Culture settings tab in the Owner module.

1. Click Operation > Owner.
2. Click the Culture Settings tab. The cultures installed are displayed.
3. Click in the Date Pattern cell.
4. Enter the date pattern for the culture, for example, the Danish date pattern da-DK: dd-MM-yyyy HH:mm:ss
5. Place the cursor in another field and click Database > Save.

When a culture specific date format is to be specified, the following subset of the.NET way of specifying the format is used:

Format specifier	Description
dd	The day of the month. Single-digit days will be preceded by a zero.
HH	The hour in a 24-hour clock. Single-digit hours will be preceded by a zero.
mm	The minute. Single-digit minutes will be preceded by a zero.
MM	The numeric month. Single-digit months will be preceded by a zero.
ss	The second. Single-digit seconds will be preceded by a zero.
yy	The year in two digits.
yyyy	The year in four digits.

The following separators are valid for separating the parts of the date format:

.	A period.
