Hi Rahul
The date format displayed in the User Tool is a client-site setting and is not affected by the date-format the server uses. The only way that I know of that you can force a particular date format to all your clients is through User Preferences. First, change the server config to force all users to use User Preferences. Then add filter workflow to the User Preferences form to set the date format settings you want for all users.

Is there any way by which I can do this Date setting in the "yyyy-mm-dd" format using the AR Admin tool. This is because on the BMC Knowledge Base site I came across one solution which states that Note: If you want to change date and time format site-wide instead of per-user, your administrator must change your operating_specific locale settings. which leads me to believe that there is a way to do it through the admin tool. Can you please help me in knowing weather is this possible using the admin tool or not.

I am able to set the Date Format to "yyyy-mm-dd" in the AR User Tool by setting the Custom Format to "yyyy-mm-dd" in the Locale tab under Tools >Options but this is setting is only specific to my machine. If I want to do the same setting site wide for more than 1300 users is it possible by some way. Please let me know.
