MDS2012 Decimal Seperator

Question

Greetings,

I am currently looking at an installation of MDS in which the decimale seperators jump irregular.

So i wondering as to:
How can i influence MDS into using just 1 seperator?

We use the following setup:

- Server 2008 R2 (english)
- MDS (english)
- Browser (Dutch)

How to reproduce:

When the page loads all seperators are comma's which is the appropriated dutch way.
However as we click around a few time, the seperators in specific fields turn to dots.
If the user updates any values for that field (the .-separator) the decimal-separator is lost (example: 10,2 becomes 102).

(I can adjust the comma seperator in my regional settings but where does the dot come from?)

With kind regards,

Bas van den Putten

Answer 1

Greetings,

A minor-update:

the Master data services changes between en-US and nl-NL, when it lands on en-US it stays on that language.

Hi Sebastian

could you try to force the culture ?

you will have to change this line :

  <globalization culture="auto" enableClientBasedCulture="true" uiCulture="auto"/>

(in C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\110\Master Data Services\WebApplication\web.config)

(this is default path for SQL SERVER 2012 --> please check this path again for SQL 2008 R2)

please take a look at this page : http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bz9tc508(v=vs.100).aspx
