Hello,

Date format is taken from locale so if you set the system locale the openERP set the date and time format accordingly.

Thanks.

Hello,

You can check it from python prompt also by using following command:

import locale
locale.setlocale(locale.LC_ALL,'fr_FR')
and it will set the French language locale by following way:
'fr_FR'
After do that when you start your client again it will set date/time format according to French.

You can change the date/time format from openERP client also using following menu:
Administration/Translations/Application Terms/Languages.

Thanks.
