Localize DeepSee time dimension

I have a server with rusw locale but in my cube the time dimension shows dates such as "JAN-2018". Is there a way to either localize that (preferably) or just output numbers  like "01-2018"?

Also in architect, in level settings there is a "Time Format" property, what's that? Tried setting it to 3 but it didn't help.

%DeepSee.Utils:%FormatDate offers this options

Format a date value (in $H format) according to the format in pFormat. The format string can contain:

  • "y" - Year number (4 digits).
  • "q" - Quarter number.
  • "m" - Month number, with no leading zero.
  • "mm" - Month number, with leading zero.
  • "mmm" - Short name of month (using server locale).
  • "mmmm" - Long name of month (using server locale).
  • "d" - Day number, with no leading zero.
  • "dd" - Day number, with leading zero.
  • "ddd" - Short name of day (using server locale).
  • "dddd" - Long name of day (using server locale).
  • "\x" - display character "x"
  • " " - space
  • "/" - "/"
  • "-" - "-"
  • "." - "."

Added mm as Time Format and rebuilt cube. Got 01 instead of JAN.

Removed mm. Turns out, all you need to do is to use locale defaults in Locale Settings
