Overview of Unit System and Phone Number Formats
Each country has an associated unit system and phone number format. The unit system is the standard
units in which weight and length are measured (e.g., most of Europe in on the System International, the
United States is on the U.S. System (known outside the U.S. as the Imperial System), and the United
Kingdom is on the Imperial + Metric System. Digital StoreFront ships with default values for these
systems but a site administrator may decide to change the unit system. Digital StoreFront supports
many countries, and the “Countries” page provides administrators with the means to change (1) the
unit system for a country and (2) the format for phone number.
The unit system settings determine the unit that is shown to a buyer on the site. For instance, an
administrator in the U.S. can enter the weight of a product in pounds (lb), but a buyer viewing the
product details in a country on the System International will see the weight in kilograms (kg). The
system handles all conversions between unit systems.
For information on setting the unit system for the site, see Unit System Tab .
To select the unit system and telephone number pattern associated with a country
1. Scroll down to the country you want to assign a unit system for.
2. To display all the supported unit systems, click the All Units System link and review the
measurement standards for each of the supported systems.
The All Units System is a special system (which is the default). It contains all the units the
system supports.
3. Click the Edit link.
4. From the Unit System pull-down list, select the unit system for the country.
5. In the Phone Number Pattern (Advanced) field, type the phone number pattern using regular
expression (or regex) recipes. For example: The regular expression for the U.S. phone number
format (000) 000-0000 is:
^\(?\s?\+?\s?\d{3}\s?\)?[ -]?\d{3}[ -]?\d{4}$
For more information on regular expressions, see A Quick Reference on Regular
Expressions .
6. In the Displayed Pattern field, enter the displayed pattern (e.g., for the U.S. phone number type
(000) 000-0000).
7. Click the Update link to save changes or click Cancel to quit editing without saving your changes.
