[Locale data updates in Java version 20](https://www.oracle.com/java/technologies/javase/20-relnote-issues.html#JDK-8284840) mean that [date formatting microflow expressions](/refguide/parse-and-format-date-function-calls/#formatDateTime) return a different result when the format string contains AM or PM.

In Java versions below 20, a space would be included before the AM/PM, but now it will be a Unicode non-breaking space (NBSP or NNBSP, \u202f). In a microflow expression, this non-breaking space can be included in a string using `urlDecode('%E2%80%AF')`—for example `'8:24' + urlDecode('%E2%80%AF') + 'AM'`.
In Java versions below 20, a regular space is included before the AM/PM, but starting from version 20, it is replaced by a Unicode non-breaking space (NBSP or NNBSP, \u202f). In a microflow expression, this non-breaking space can be included in a string using `urlDecode('%E2%80%AF')`—for example `'8:24' + urlDecode('%E2%80%AF') + 'AM'`.

In Java versions below 21, a period is included at the end of an abbreviated month name (`MMM`) for the Dutch locale. Starting from version 21, this period is no longer present.
