You can define the system locale to automatically display the following values in your Joget DX system:

  • timezone
  • language
  • date format

By setting the System Locale and Using Locale Date Format checkbox, you can control how date and language is presented system-wide.

How locale date format is determined?

Locale date format is retrieved using the underlying Java library Joget DX runs on. 


Here's a quick comparison by using the default Expenses Claim app on the "Created" column with no formatter used at all.

Figure 3: dateCreated is platform default column that will follow system locale format set

Figure 3: Datalist using en_US locale where date displays as mm/dd/yyyy.


Figure 4: Datalist using en_GB locale where date displays as dd/mm/yyyy.


This is the list of elements/modules but not limited to that may be influenced by locale settings.
