Wrong date conversion when importing

Posted on by Microsoft Employee

Hi 

I have a xml file to import into CRM which has date filed as below image : 

crm_2D00_date_2D00_error2.PNG

So it dates mean third day of 2016 September, When imported it converts to 03/09/2016.

Here is the CRM configuration :

crm_2D00_date_2D00_error1.PNG

 

Would you help me please ?

Best

    Hi,

    Try below steps:

    Open file in Excel. Select column and change the format to date in (mm/dd/yyyy) format and save changes. See if it works.

    Also, try setting date which is greater than 12 and check if it is throwing error or it considers mm/dd/yyyy format.
