You have the option to change Locale settings for your template when you clone it. You can specify the following fields:
|
Field |
Description |
|---|---|
|
Locale |
Choose an option from the list to change the default locale for the template. |

Enable Formatting |
Check this box to enable locale formatting at the template and field level for this template. This allows you to define locale settings for Currency and Date formats. |
|
Optional: Specify the following fields when "Enable Formatting" is selected to modify locale formatting. |
|
|
Date Format |
Select an option from the drop-down to choose the default format for all date fields in the template. |
|
Currency Format |
Select an option from the drop-down to choose the format for all Currency fields in the template. Choose "None" to only display Currency field values in generated documents. Note:
If "Currency Symbol" is selected, Currency fields will be generated with no space between the symbol and field value. If "ISO" is selected, Currency fields will be generated with a space between the ISO code and the field value. |
|

Enter a number to define the precision for Number field values in the template (e.g., "2" if the Number field should display two digits following the decimal point.) |

- Selecting a Locale for the template defaults all Date, Number and Currency values in the template to pre-defined formats. To see the list of locales and their corresponding formats, refer to List of Apttus Supported Locales and Associated Formatting in the Appendix.
- You can define formats for the selected locale by specifying the optional Date and Currency formats described in the table above. Field format can also be defined from the Control Panel when you are working with the template (see Changing Field Format by Locale)
