END USER TIPS & TRICKS - Date Formats

chintsys - Monday, March 5, 2007 9:40 PM:

Hi,

Is there a way to change the date format from mm/dd/yyyy to either dd/mm/yyyy or d-mmm-yyyy in the Portfolio/Projects table (as well as other tables and forms with dates)?  There does not seem to be a setting available under Administration/Preferences.  Am I looking in the wrong area?

I'm using Aras Innovator 8.1.0 build 5338

thanks,

chintsys

The following steps setup the required format:

1. Login as admin.

2. Select AdministrationItemTypes in TOC (the main Innovator tree).

3. Find Project in the appeared grid and edit it.

  -> The Project window appears.

4. Select date_start_sched (the date property example, its label is Sched Start) property in Properties tab.

5. Set Pattern=dd.MM.yyyy (for example) for the selected property. Other patterns may be used here.

6. Click Save icon in the window. 

7. Select PortfolioProjects in TOC.

  -> Sched Start values are displayed in the specified format.

Note: Sched Start dates are displayed in the specified format on Project form too.

Note 2: This way is useful to change a date property format for any ItemType (Project ItemType is an example).

Thanks for your clear response.  That worked fine for me.
