The
dddd (full weekday, e.g. Friday) and ddd (short weekday, e.g. Fri) variants prefix the day of the week to the date. The weekday prefix is display-only: it appears in cells and in grid group-by headers, while records still sort and group on the underlying date. The weekday name currently renders in English only.
