GroupWise offers several date and time formats that determine the way dates and times display throughout the application. For example, you might prefer dates to appear with the day first, followed by the month, and then the year, such as 24 August, 2010.
The time and date formats in GroupWise are highly customizable. You can specify the order of elements, the type of separators between elements, whether dates are spelled out or represented by numbers, and several other options.
There are three configurable date and time settings:
Time: Use the Time setting to determine how times display.
Short Date Format: Use the Short date setting to specify how the date appears in its short format (typically, with numbers representing the day, month, and year).
Long Date Format: Use the Long date setting to specify how the date appears in its long format (typically, with numbers representing the day and year, and with the month spelled out).
Use the General GroupWise format setting to determine whether the long date or short date is used throughout GroupWise.
