Symptoms

Please clarify Siebel bookshelf regarding the date display format.

1. Per the Siebel Application Administration Guide:

For the Siebel Web Client the display format for date and time is determined by the locale settings of the application server.


2. Per Configuring Siebel Business Applications (See Field Data Type DType_Date and DType_DateTime):

Formatting is defaulted from the Microsoft Windows Control Panel. You can set the appearance of date values through the Windows Control Pane.

Issue:
Users are located in multiple regions. 
How do you configure different display formats for them using the ENU Object Manager?
How can you allow multiple region web clients to see the data in the display format of their country?
