Per the WOLFcon discussion about single-tenant consortia implementations, we are not going to be able to get away with a single timezone per tenant. Multiple timezones are needed, not only for consortia, but also for institutions like Duke who have campuses in multiple timezones (Raleigh and China) NOTE: So far all the institutions I have spoken with including Duke and the 5 Colleges, have wanted to have shared circulation meaning a single set of users, loan rules and policies and inventory across all campuses (in Duke's case) and institutions (for the 5 colleges). Loan rules and policies will differ depending upon the location, but that's already built in. I need some help understanding what our options are for timezones. The need to specify a tenant-level timezone (

While Chicago individually does not require this feature, will it be needed to support resource sharing/cooperative collections within consortia (many of whom will not be using FOLIO)? If so, then we would want to see this implemented within a year after go-live. |

With the addition of the Primary Currency setting in Q2 2019, we have the need to have more than just the Time Zone able to have multiple settings. Locale (for language display, date format, number format, etc.) Although this issue does not mention the Locale setting, it matters as well due to its control over how numbers are displayed. Locale determines if a dot or a comma appear between the number and its decimals. It also determine what the grouping character will be (for thousands). For example, in the US we use a grouping character of a comma and a decimal character of a dot, like this: 9,999,999.99. In Germany they use a grouping character of a space and a decimal character of a comma, like this: 9 999 999,99 So if you have the Locale set to English - United States (because the institution in German speaks English) and Primary Currency set to Euro, you are going to get some strange results: 9,999,999.99 € When you want: 9 999 999,99 € |
