Hi Community,

When I tried to exporting Configuration Package excel, the date is MM/DD/YYYY, how to change it to DD/MM/YY ?

What I will do is, I will correct the date format and upload to configuration package.

However, Navision will show me that there will be error that states the dates revert to MM/DD/YYYY as shown below

Not sure why this happens.

Thank you!

Change the date format for Your computer - NAV is showing dates in the same format as Users regional/date format settings.

Hi KasparsSemjonovs,

Thank you for your reply. I forgot to add that I have already checked my server date format and my computer date format, they are correct as per display in Naivsion.

It is only when we export the Configuration Template then the date is not correct.

Hi,

I haven't find an answer for this.

My PC already has the correct format, but the Navision still doesn't show the correct time format when export.

If anyone else has other suggestions to check, all are welcome.

Thank you!
