I assume you would like to use the comma as decimal separator in your SQL statements, like

  UPDATE konto SET betrag = 23,50 WHERE kontonummer = 42;

That is not possible.

However, if you set the parameter "lc_numeric" to a German locale, you can use the comma with the function to_number():

  SET lc_numeric = "de_DE.utf8";

  SELECT to_number('23,50', '999999999D99');

   to_number
  ═══════════
       23.50
  (1 row)

Yours,
