    the connector will update the following settings by default:
    • sfuser.connector.defaultValue.preferenceTimeZone=America/New_York (or any xyz)
    • sfuser.connector.defaultValue.preferenceLocale=English (or any locale)
    • sfuser.connector.defaultValue.preferenceCurrency=USD (or any currency)

That means you need not to give these values in the feed file i.e. the time zone, currency and locale.

If you are giving you need to turn the property sfuser.connector.update.updatePreferences= to "N".
