Localized format and symbol settings

Localized format and symbol settings are stored in the format_symbols.xml file for each supported locale. The format_symbols.xml file for a locale is stored in the \conf\<locale> folder under your Marketing Operations installation.

IBM® discourages editing the format_symbols.xml file.

If you do edit the format_symbols.xml file, follow these guidelines:

In Windows™, you must save the file in UTF-8 format, rather than the Windows™ default of ANSI.

If you edit the date/time settings, you must use the same format for both <date-format> and <date-time-format>. Otherwise, you will receive errors while working with Marketing Operations.
