Hi George,
So I take it you have the following scenario: a bex query > Universe > Qaaws > Dashboard
Is the fiscal year period a prompt defined in Qaaws or is it coming from Bex query?
What 'preferred viewing locale' has customer configured in Bi Launchpad > preferences > Locales and Time zone ? Is it the default 'use browser locale'? If user sets the same language as the format defined, does this work?
Regards,
jennifer
