When you create a new template or clone an existing one, you are required to specify a Locale for your template. 

Because there may be some cases that require you to override formats at the field level, X-Author Templates provides template administrators with the ability to define Number and Currency Precision, Currency Format, and Date Format. This allows you to preserve locale for fields in inserted clauses at the template level while making specific changes to other field formats as needed. Generated documents conform to template locale except when specified at the field level.

Prerequisite

Enable Formatting must be selected when the template is created, cloned or checked in.
