 ### Added
 
-- [#12208](https://github.com/inventree/InvenTree/pull/12208) adds custom locale support for currency rendering within reports.
+- [#12208](https://github.com/inventree/InvenTree/pull/12208) adds custom locale support for rendering currencies, dates and numbers within reports. This allows users to specify a custom locale for report rendering, which can be used to control the formatting of dates, numbers and currency values in the generated reports. The custom locale can be set via the `REPORT_LOCALE` system setting, and if not set, the system will fall back to using the default system locale for report rendering.
 - [#12204](https://github.com/inventree/InvenTree/pull/12204) adds new filtering options to PartCategoryTree and StockLocationTree API endpoints, allowing tree data to be fetched dynamically
 - [#12165](https://github.com/inventree/InvenTree/pull/12165) adds support for parameters against the PartCategory model
 - [#12103](https://github.com/inventree/InvenTree/pull/12103) adds column-based filtering to table views in the user interface. This extends the existing table filtering functionality by allowing users to apply filters directly to individual columns.
