Bank Reconcilication - statement upload

Question

Dear SAP Gurus,
In bank reconciliation, we have configured all the steps & the manual bank reconciliation is working fine. We are working in ECC 6.0 SAP version Our Client  requires direct upload of the statement  & post the bank outgoing & incoming entries in the system. For that , we used  Multicash Format (auszug.txt and umsatz.txt) . We prepared an excel sheet giving the detail of each field in the txt. We then tried to upload in FF_5 , in the header & line item field of the FF_5 . We encountered with the following error while uploading.
RFEKA200 : Error when converting date
Message no : FB080
The dates were given as DD.MM.YY as said in SAP Note 36833 - Multicash Format (auszug.txt and umsatz.txt)
