Definition

The checkbox AM/PM time format supported is used for specifying the time format to be used on screens (24-hour or 12-hour format) for time fields (fields of data type TIMS).

By default, time fields are issued in the 24-hour format. If the checkbox AM/PM time format supported is set, the time format specified in the user master record is used for display on screens (if sufficient space is available). In the user master record, a 12-hour format with AM (am) or PM (pm) can be specified.

If the checkbox AM/PM time format supported is set, there are the following options for the output length:

  • 11 : Output and input with minutes and seconds
  • 8 : Output and input with minutes, but without seconds
  • 5 : Output and input without minutes and seconds
