Unable to Generate EFT File

Posted on by 336
HI team,
 
I am having issues with generating EFT file. I am getting the below error message.
/The format of the Date '240319' does not match your device's date settings. Make sure that the day, month, and year are in the correct order and use the correct separator (such as - or /). Alternatively, you can always use the format 'yyyy-mm-dd'./
 
Can anyone please help.

    Hi All,
    Thank you for your responses. 
     
    I was able to bypass this issue by changing the Region and date setting on the Data Exchange definition.

    Hi, from your screenshot, your date format is 3·/19/2024, so I suggest you try changing it to "031924".
     
     
    In addition, if you are using the cloud version, the date format is determined by the Region in My Settings.
     
    Hope this helps.
    Thanks.

    the error message says you could try 2 things
     
    1 check the date format in your computer so it matches the date format required by the data exchange definition
    2 leave the computer date as is, format the data exchange definition date field to yyyy-mm-dd
     
     
    either way, you should be able to fix the issue
     
    hope it helps,
