Hi All,

 

Anyone know on how to change default date format on IFS Cloud. Because the date format is not the same with PC local date format, causing confusion when reading date 03/01/2024 is 3rd January or 1st March of 2024. Have been looking around for solution, but found no answer.

 

 

Thanks.

Hello,

I have moved the post to different section as it is not related to localization.

Please see additional resources related to Date format.

 @Grzegorz Byrski I disagree with you that you pushed this under timezone settings. This about what the format of the date is. According to me @sutoto asked where to set date format in either dd-mm-yy or mm-dd-yy or any other format.


@eqbstal  Thank you for your input. Which section of the forum do you think is most appropriate to reach out the right audience? Do you think it should remain under localization?
 


I see no problem with leaving it in Localization. I tend to find issues not via the forums they are in, but by asking questions like: how to set the date format. I you want to move it to another section, it would be foundation/infra structure.


If you use Chrome you can set the date format by putting the language that holds your desired date format at the top in Chrome settings - Language. It needs to be number one, but you do not need to use it for displaying Chrome . Below are my settings for dd-mm-yyyy

 


@Kathan You're my hero of the day: Found the same sort of setting in MS Edge:

I did have English (United States) on top. Changed it to the shown setting. Refreshed my IFS screen, using refresh of the browser (so not the refresh of the data in top as part of the IFS path).

Works now like a charm.

Thanks,

Steve

Tried is option, but it has no effect on the IFS Cloud. Date format always presented in MM/DD/YYYY. Our customer need to standardize all user to have format of DD/MM/YYYY.

Correction:

I managed to get the desired date format by following the option. I selected the wrong language.

To get date format of DD/MM/YYYY, I should user English UK, instead of English International or US.

Sutoto
