Your localization settings specify the language you see when you login to P6 and the country for server string constants. The Java application uses this setting to ensure all instances of P6 EPPM will use the same localization settings.
Note:
The localization used by your operating system will have priority for the language used. The localization setting in P6 ensures P6 EPPM uses your preferred language if the JVM fails to recognize your operating system's localization settings.
If you change the localization of P6 on the login page, you will only change the language for your P6 user interface. It does not translate your data or change the convention followed by your region.
To set your language and country:
Open the Primavera P6 Administrator.
In the Configurations tab, expand your configuration.
Expand Localization.
In the System Language field, enter your language. The default is English (en).
In the System Country field, enter your country. The default is the US.
