Making System-Wide Regional Settings

To make the regional settings, go to the System Director - Configuration Manager - Regional Settings.

The regional settings include:

Language

The language setting allows you to set the system-wide language of the HSPcomplete interface.

Default Time Zone

In respect to registration of the events that happen within the system, the HSPcomplete database is bound to GMT. This means that automatically-generated notifications and system messages (for example, about the end of VE trial period) may occur to be hardly understandable for the customers that reside in the other time zones.

Thus, the HSPcomplete provides an opportunity of setting different time zones for different Customers (or Resellers, or Enterprise Customers). This can be done during creation of a new Account or later. The special time zone can be set for each user associated with an Account. After this, all the time-related data (in Action Log, Event Manager, or automatically-generated notifications) will be bound to the User's time zone, without the need for him (or her) to recalculate time.

However, if most of your prospect customers will reside in the single time zone, it is quite reasonable to set default time zone for the newly registered persons.

First Day of Week

You can select the day a week starts. For example, this setting is used when setting the time interval in the billing reports view. Typically, the first day of week is either Sunday or Monday.

Currency

You can set the system-wide currency (for all financial documents and Hosting Plan prices).

Note: HSPcomplete is a single-currency system. In other words automatic currency recalculations are not available. In the case if you change the system-wide currency, you will have the unified currency sign, fractional part format, etc., however you will need to recalculate all prices manually. For example, both domain-registration Plug-Ins support US Dollar only as an accounting currency. Thus, in order to update domain-registration prices correctly the system-wide currency should be US Dollar by prices update, otherwise the new prices will not be used in HSPcomplete billing.
