Trunk changes for the german localization

Description

The Team Germany decided in his last meeting to create a plugin package with german localizations. Some of the changes we need are simply faults in the core database. I want to collect these core contributions under this jira issue.

First examples:

  • germany has political regions but they do not have to be written in addresses. So in the country database we should switch off the regions

  • with every language import I have to set the right date and time format. These could be in the database from beginning

Environment

None

I think this has been solved - can you please recheck - and reopen if necessary commenting what is still needed

Hi Dirk, Thomas,

there are two things to consider:

  1. the Option Country has Regions, this is Dirk' remark

  2. the Capture Sequence, (this is Thomas' intention ?)

The default in iDempiere is defined like this:

indeed we have regions in Germany and the first default is OK. So in the INTRASTAT report you can defne the fields "Ursprungsregion" resp. "Bestimmungsregion" with @R@.
But the second defalt can be changed, if we allways want to seek for cities corss the regions. This is good if we have recorded only a few cities. Then the default for Capture Sequence can be:

@A1@ @A2@ @A3@ @A4@ D-@P@ @C@ @CO@

I prefere the iDempiere-default, even while iDempiere comes without any DE-citi

By the way:
the Postal Code Format in Germany is defined by 00000

Regards EUGen H.

Hi Thomas,

I like to object against your proposal concerning regions. When a company is trading goods inside the EU it has to regularly provide the so called INTRASTAT report. One of the details in the report is the German region of the final destination of the goods. For a German localization we should comment out the related code for printing the region in MLocation.

Regards,
Dirk Niemeyer
