Changing the Date and Time Formatting for a Profile

You can change the format that Information Portal uses to display dates and times. You can choose how the day, month, and year display. You can also choose how hours, minutes, and seconds display.

In order to change the way that Information Portal displays the date and time, you must enter the appropriate symbols and arrange them in the correct order.
