Localization is a feature that allows the presentation and entry of data based on a user's preferred selections. The locale setting also determines the language in which the application is displayed for the user based on the user's selected preferences, the available presentations, and the organization's default presentation. If the user's preferred language is not supported for an application, the organization's default language presentation will be displayed when the user accesses the application.
Other options determined by the locale settings include the default time zone, decimal and thousands separators, and date / time formats.
Note: The locale settings described below apply to users who have access to the Security and Administration Portal, Interview Scheduling, and Onboarding applications. They do not apply to RMS Recruiting Portal, VMS, Talent Management, or to PeopleFluent implementations of Business Intelligence.
