Customizing Currency Format
To customize the currency format—for example, changing the dollar sign to the Euro symbol for all Portal users, you can modify the portal.properties file.
The portal.properties file is located here:
Linux:
/opt/aptare/portalconf/portal.properties
Windows:
C:\opt\aptare\portalconf\portal.properties
1. Update the following section:
#Formatters that define specific presentations of numbers and dates
formatter.decimalPlaces=2
fileSize.base2=true
formatter.number=###,###,##0
formatter.date=MMM dd, yyyy hh:mm:ssa
formatter.dateZone=MMM dd, yyyy hh:mm:ssa z
formatter.yearMonth=MMM dd
formatter.groupByDate=MMM dd
formatter.designerDate=MM/dd/yyyy
formatter.currency=$ ###,###,##0.00
• Substitute currency signs as needed, such as changing the $ to another denomination.
• Substitute the £ with the unicode equivalent \u00A3
• You also can modify this section of the portal.properties file to change the comma delimiter.
2. Restart the Tomcat Portal services after making your modification.
