Thesettings you specify here apply to all users in the organization. However, users candefine a different default export character set on their My Account page to exportdata from Sugar.This character encoding is also used when importing data into Sugar.By default, Sugar uses UTF-8 to store data and CP1252 to export data. For localesthat use character encoding other than CP1252, you must specify the appropriatedefault character set. This ensures that the character set used by the Sugar systemto create the exported file is mapped to the correct character set on the user’smachine. For example, MS Windows uses SJIS in Japan.
