What does "CollationLocale" variable do in Qlik Sense?

[jblomqvist]

Hi,

I noticed in the Main tab of the script there is a Set "CollationLocale" variable.

In the Help: https://help.qlik.com/en-US/qlikview/November2017/Subsystems/Client/Content/Scripting/SystemVariable...

It says: "Specifies which locale to use for sort order and search matching. The value is the culture name of a locale, for example 'en-US'.This is a system-defined variable."

But I don't exactly understand what that means.

Can anyone please provide example of how this would impact? What does this variable do please in practical terms?

I think this will be quite helpful to understand what collation is meaning: Search - But what shall you find?
