Hi,

We have encountered the following problem during a BaaN implementation on one of our sites:

On that site they use the currency format "," as a decimal point, and "." as a thousand separator, whereas we use "." as a decimal point and "," as a thousand separator, for the same currency code.

We had to create a new environment to allow them using their specific format.

Is there any alternative way?

Thanks for any suggestion.

Erik

Not sure.. how about using another language instead of another environment ?

New language would be a good idea, when the user is from B5.2a and above. If there is nothing found in other languages, system will default to English (language 2). Also, forms, reports and etc. are not stored by language.

For B4.x customers, to use different language, they should copy all the language dependent components into new language.

It is matter of preferences about which way to go.
