OIM11gR2: Changing Default Date format in calendar input

Hi Experts,
There are certain OOB fields in OIM like "Hire Date", "Provisioning date" that accept input from calendar control.
I could see the default input format is like MM/DD/YY (eg: 12/13/12) when i click on calendar icon and select any date range
But i want the functionality like if i select a date from calendar it should get populated as "MMM dd, yyyy" eg (Dec 13, 2012) in text box.
Please help me out!!
thanks in advance.

Apologies... when I read the question through the first time I didn't work out that you were using the query window inside the Deverloper Tools for Visual Studio .NET. The OracleGlobalization object would be used in .NET code.
I don't know a way to override the date format in the query window other than doing a to_char() on the date in the query.
Something like:
select to_char(sysdate, 'DD-MON-YYYY HH24:MI:SS') from dualSorry about that,
Mark

How to change default Date format in BO 6.5 SP4

A problem with date display has been reported to me by one of our users - in BO 6.5 - since installing SP4.
The default date format is now MM/DD/YYYY
I have tried to recreate this on my PC and have been able to confirm that this is the case.
Most of our PC's will have two versions of Business Objects on them - for 5.1.6 and for 6.5 - that is the case for my PC.
If I create a new BO document based on a spreadsheet with three entries in the spreadsheet as follows:-
20/01/2009 20-Jan-2009 20th January 2009
This displays in BO 6.5 as
1/20/2009 1/20/2009 20th January 2009
My PC regional setting is UK and the time displays DD/MM/YYYY
Can you advise how to correct this problem please.

Hi Sebastien
Thank you for your response.
I haven't checked Dimension in universe because this is happening even when datasource is an Excel spreadheet - as per details in previous post.
I have looked for *.sbo files and found one for ODBC.sbo in the Version 5 folders on PC - with date format details in it which I've changed - that doesn't make any difference.
Any other ideas?

Change default date format of reports data source

Hi all,
I need to convert an ugly EBS standard charactermode report (Oracle Reports) into the Xml-Publisher format. I'd like to use the existing report as the xml data source as all data is available in the old report.
The problem is that the date format used by reports is determined by NLS_DATE_FORMAT (et al). This date format unfortunately is not xml compliant (dd.mm.yyyy in our case) and so Xml-Publisher date related features (e.g. sort by date) will not work .
The report/template is submitted via the submit concurrent request form.
Is there a way to make the underlying reports produce xml conformant dates without resorting to wild substring operations in the template or changing the EBS standard report?
Thanks
Christoph

Can i change the nls parameter of a particular column(date field) in a table?if i set that it is apllied to all the tables in the database..No. Please understand that all dates, in all tables are stored in the same, oracle-defined, format. NLS_date_format affects how that internal date is converted to a character string for presentation to humans, or how to interpret a character string (received ,ultimately, from a human) for conversion to that internal format. It (NLS_DATE_FORMAT) can be set at several levels, but table/column is not one of them.
Please read the link I posted in my earlier response. It will clear up your confusion.

Is it possible to change the Database default date format 'dd/mm/yy'

I'm inserting a date with the format 'dd-mon-yy' in a column, it gives the error:- " a non-numeric character was found where a numeric was expected ". I also tried the TO_DATE function but not successful.
I want to change the Database default Date format 'dd/mm/yy' to 'dd-mon-yy'. Is it possible?
version is (Oracle Server 7.3.2.0). I checked it on version ( Oracle Server 7.3.4.0) with format of 'dd-mon-yy'.
May I keep the both formats at a time?
Thanks for solution(s),
Tariq.

you can try with:
ALTER SESSION
SET NLS_DATE_FORMAT = 'dd-mon-yy';

Set Default Date Format in 4.2 jQuery Mobile Smartphone

Hi guys,
on "normal" Desktop interfaces you can set a default date format in the Globalization settings. Currently I'm working on a JQM app, and I noticed, that the same settings I have for date format in other apps, don't take affect.
I now read in the 4.2 release notes, that somehow this issue was a bit buggy. Is this fixed? I would like to set a german date format like "DD.MM.YYYY"; (as it's working in desktop apps). How can I do it? In global settings this entry gets saved.
But whenever I want to set an individual date-picker-item to that format, it changes back to "YYYY-MM-DD" after saving. And I don't really want to get into writing a conversion function in the dml-processing now.
Thanks for any hints, best regards,
tobi

Hi Tobi,
the "Date Picker (HTML5)" item type maps to the HTML5 input type="date", which requires that the internal format of the date value always has to be YYYY-MM-DD, but it's up to the browser to actually display the date in the format of the local operating system setting. The browser of iOS for example shows the date in the format of my local language/country setting.
See also http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7372038/is-there-any-way-to-change-input-type-date-format
To make a long story short, it's not possible to specify the display format for those date pickers, because it's not supported by the HTML5 spec.

Change the date format from mm/dd to dd/mm

Is there any way to change the date format? Currently, my today screen, calendar app, etc is set to display dates as mm/dd. I'd like to change it to the UK format (dd/mm) but I have not been able to find a single method that works. I've tried themes as some have recommended but once I install them, it's still showing mm/dd.
I'm not unfamiliar with upgrading the OS and "slimming" it down, so even a method that requires me to remove US resource files will be okay.
Frankly I'm disappointed RIM doesn't provide users with a "Regional Settings" type option like in Windows to change the date format.
Any advice would be most appriciated.

Yes you can change Date format from mm/dd to dd/mm its done automatically by " Display language " selected :
Go to Menu : Setup - choose - Language and Input Methods - look for " Display Language" there is a small window with down arrow , click the down arrow and , change from " English" to " English (UK) "for DD / MM ,date format , or change to " English (US) " for MM / DD date format.
Hope this help .

Please use forums devoted to Javascript. You're here at a Java/JSP forum.
There are JS forums at webdeveloper.com and dynamicdrive.com. Good luck.
String formatPattern = "yyyy-mm-dd";
SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat(formatPattern);
sdf.format(yourdate);yyyy-mm-dd denotes year-minutes-days. Please go read the SimpleDateFormat API as well.

How can I change the date format in Reminders and in Notes?

How can I change the date format in both Notes and Reminders? Preference on Imac and Settings in IOS do not allow me to change the format in those 2 apps.

I do not have Mavericks or iOS - but the first thing I would do is reset the defaults - I'll use Mavericks as an example
From If the wrong date or time is displayed in some apps on your Mac - Apple Support
OS X Yosemite and Mavericks
    Open System Preferences.
    From the View menu, choose Language & Region.
    Click the Advanced button.
    Click the Dates tab.
    Click the Restore Defaults button.
    Click the Times tab.
    Click the Restore Defaults button.
    Click OK.
    Quit the app where you were seeing incorrect dates or times displayed.
    Open the app again, and verify that the dates and times are now displayed correctly.
Then customize to taste - OS X Mavericks: Customize formats to display dates, times, and more
OS X Mavericks: Customize formats to display dates, times, and more
Change the language and formats used to display dates, times, numbers, and currencies in Finder windows, Mail, and other apps. For example, if the region for your Mac is set to United States, but the format language is set to French, then dates in Finder windows and email messages appear in French.
    Choose Apple menu > System Preferences, then click Language & Region.
    Choose a geographic region from the Region pop-up menu, to use the region’s date, time, number, and currency formats.
    To customize the formats or change the language used to display them, click Advanced, then set options.
    In the General pane, you can choose the language to use for showing dates, times, and numbers, and set formats for numbers, currency, and measurements.
    In the Dates and Times panes, you can type in the Short, Medium, Long, and Full fields, and rearrange or delete elements. You can also drag new elements, such as Quarter or Milliseconds, into the fields.
    When you’re done customizing formats, click OK.
    The region name in Language & Region preferences now includes “Custom” to indicate you customized formats.
To undo all of your changes for a region, choose the region again from the Region pop-up menu. To undo your changes only to advanced options, click Advanced, click the pane where you want to undo your changes, then click Restore Defaults.
To change how time is shown in the menu bar, select the “Time format” checkbox in Language & Region preferences, or select the option in Date & Time preferences.
Here's the result AppleScript i use to grab the " 'Short Date' ' + ' 'Short Time' " to paste into download filenames - works good until I try to post it here - the colon " : " is a no-no but is fine in the Finder
Looks like iOS Settings are a bit less robust

Formscentral - how do I change required date format to long date (e.g. January 2, 2014) in a form field?

Formscentral - how do I change required date format to long date (e.g. January 2, 2014) in a form field? I can't seem to change it from the short date format.

Hi,
I would suggest you to change the form language to English (UK), Here are the steps:-
1. Open your form in FormsCentral
2. Clik on Options tab
3. Click on Language and Formatting and check out the selection for Form Language and make sure English (U.K.) is selected and the default date format should be day/month/year.
