Regional Settings

The Regional settings page lets you select the default regional settings for users across your company's account.

Regional settings can then be set for individual users on the employee demographic form (Administration > Global settings > Users > Employees > [Select an employee] > Demographic), or by users in their personal settings. See Personal Settings.

Regional settings determine how SuiteProjects Pro shows some type of values in the UI and in reports. For example, the North American or the European date format can be used for dates.

The Regional settings page includes the following settings:

• Date format – Select the required date format for dates shown in the UI and in reports.

  Important:

  If your company operates and uses SuiteProjects Pro at a global level, you should set up reports using relative date values such as This Month or Last Quarter whenever possible. Reports using custom date values may not work as expected when shared and run by employees using a date format that is different to the date format used by the report owner. If a report configured to show information for dates starting 6/1/24 onwards using a MM/DD/YY date format is shared with an employee who uses a European date format such as DD/MM/YY, for example, the report shows information for dates starting January 6th, 2024 instead of June 1st, 2024 when run by this employee.

• Number format – Select the number format with decimal and thousands separators that are used as standard by your company headquarters.

• List separator for CSV output files – Select your company's preferred CSV delimiter. A CSV delimiter, or field separator, is a character that separates values in a row of a CSV file. Some common delimiters include: comma (,), colon (:), pipe (|), semicolon (;), tab (\t), and tilde (~). The default delimiter for CSV files in SuiteProjects Pro is a comma – it is a commonly used in countries like the US, UK, and Australia. In Some European countries, the semicolon is commonly used because the comma is used as decimal separator for numerical values. You should use the same CSV delimiter as in other application, such as Microsoft Excel,for example, into which you import data that you dowloaded from SuiteProjects Pro.
