NAV makes automatically out of 31 -> 1931 and not 2031

Posted on by Microsoft Employee

Hi, guys,


I have this problem:

If you only enter 31 for the date in a customized field, NAV makes it 1931, even though 2031 is meant.

Can you set this somewhere in NAV?

Or how can I solve this?

Thank you ;)

    Hi,

    You're welcome. I was referring to Windows Control Panel. You need to configure this in Windows rather than directly in Dynamics NAV. In Win 10 for eg: Control Panel -> Clock and Region -> Region -> Additional Settings button -> Date tab.

    Thank you ;)

    Unfortunately I do not understand, where to change this behaviour...what do you mean with the Control Panel? The properties of the field?

    Hi,

    This behaviour in Dynamics NAV is determined by the date setting in Control Panel where you can specify "when a two digit year is entered, interpret it as a year between x and y".
