Configuring Date and Time Formats

Billing allows customizing date and time formats on per language basis. Namely, changing separators and sequence order is allowed. We strongly recommend creating a separate dictionary volume for customization to avoid loss of changes during Billing upgrades.

Billing provides the following key words for configuring date and time formats:

• "&datetime_format_date" "%d-%m-%Y" – 01-01-2010
• "&datetime_format_orderdate" "%d-%m-%Y" – 01-01-2010
• "&datetime_format_worddate" "%d-%b-%Y y." – 01-Jan-2010 y.
• "&datetime_format_datelong" "%d-%b-%Y" – 01-Jan-2010
• "&datetime_format_time" "%H:%M" – 20:01
• "&datetime_format_timesec" "%H:%M:%S" – 14:08:10
• "&datetime_format_datetime" "%d-%m-%Y %H:%M" – 01-01-2010 06:45
• "&datetime_format_datetimesec" "%d-%m-%Y %H:%M:%S" – 01-01-2010 06:45:34
• "&datetime_format_datetimelong" "%d-%b-%Y %H:%M" – 01-Jan-2010 08:23
• "&datetime_format_datetimeseclong" "%d-%b-%Y %H:%M:%S" – 01-Jan-2010 08:23:03
