About "Configureing your database for localization" of the PEGA Platform procedures.
I am having trouble understanding the following three points regarding "Configure your database for localization" in the Pega platform87 install tomcat oracle.pdf (PEGA installation instructions).
I don't understand the following three points.
1 . What are the consequences of not performing "Configure your database for localization"?
2 . What is the impact of not performing step 5?
3 . When do you perform this step?
Is it before the PEGA installation, before the schema and tables are created, since it is in the database preparation section? Or can it be done after installation?
Please respond.

@YukiK338 Thanks for your question.
Here is my answers:
1. Pega may auto truncate non-key properties if those text properties overflow the column length limit. The configuration you refer to is ensuring Pega's truncate logic is correct even multi-byte character is involved; otherwise, client may hit exceptions that complain too large value
2. Step 5 is needed only if client cannot perform the previous steps due to coporate policy.
3. It has to be done before Pega installation
