Changing Global Settings

By default, IBM® Cognos® components ensure that all locales, which may come from different sources and in various formats, use a normalized form. That means that all expanded locales conform to a language and regional code setting. Each computer has a default system locale and one user locale per user. The user locales may be different from the default system locale. If you change global settings on one Content Manager computer, you must make the same changes on the other Content Manager computers.
