Arabic Language and cultural localization

General Description of the Feature

This feature implements Arabic language and cultural localization, specifically focusing on the presentation of dates and times within the OneDealer platform. The enhancements ensure that users who select Arabic as their language preference see date and time formats aligned with the Gregorian calendar and the "en-GB" culture.

• Override of Dates and Times in Arabic Language:

  • When the user selects Arabic as the language, all date and time presentations within OneDealer will use the Gregorian calendar with the "en-GB" culture.
  • This means that elements like day and month will be presented in English, providing consistency and clarity.

• Normalization of Dates and Times:

  • The system previously used various custom date formats unrelated to the selected language culture. This feature standardizes date and time formats to ensure they are consistent and culturally relevant.
  • For example, the format “dd/MM/yyyy” will be used consistently, reflecting a standardized approach aligned with the "en-GB" culture.

Business Benefit 

This enhancement improves the user experience for Arabic-speaking users by providing consistent and culturally appropriate date and time formats. By standardizing these formats across the platform, it ensures clarity and reduces confusion, enhancing overall usability and satisfaction for users in the MENA region and other Arabic-speaking locales.
