WCS showing mm/dd/yyyy date format in UK
WCS is showing dates in mm/dd/yyyy format despite being in the UK where it should be dd/mm/yyyy.
- Reports show it.
- When a Lobby Ambassador tries to add or schedule a guest user on WCS the date in the 'Start Time' and 'End Time' fields is shown in mm/dd/yyyy format (and is confusing for reception/admin staff who need to use it).
WCS is installed on a Windows 2003 server with latest updates and patches and all regional/international options are set to UK.
Is this something that can be changed from WCS settings or something that needs diving into Apache to fix ?
Regards,
Jen.
Hi Jeniffer,
Basically the WCS uses U.S date format all over the
application.. the time in WCS is synchronized with the
server however the way we have designed and programmed WCS for date format
is in U.S fashion which is mm/dd/yyyy. This is the behaviour that WCS
has since day one and this date format cannot be customized.

this will help you!! lemme know if this naswered ur question!!

How can I set BOE XI R2 InfoView to use MM/DD/YYYY date format?
How can I set BOE XI R2 InfoView to use MM/DD/YYYY date format instead of the default yyyy-mm-dd that comes up?
Thank you.
PaulI'm sorry to be dense. Are you using BOE XI R2? I don't see a "preferred viewing local" under preferences. I see "My Interface Locale is..." under the General tab, which I have set to United States. I don't see anywhere where I can enter in the dates and numbers.
I also checked in the CMC under Business Object Enterprise applications, and did not see anything there either.
Can you be specific?
Thanks again.

Any help will be appreciated with rewards.

Web ChannelHi,
You can get it from "User" or "Shop" business object.
Try to get User or Shop Business Object as shown below.
BusinessObjectManager bom = (BusinessObjectManager) userSessionData.getBOM(BusinessObjectManager.ISACORE_BOM);
User user = bom.getUser();
char decimalNotation = user.getDecimalPointFormat().getGroupingSeparator();
If you are seeing "1,234.00" then above code will return "."
I hope this information help you to resolve your issue.

Problem with date format parameter in SSRS2012 after migration from SSRS2008
Hello,
We are migration from
Reporting Services 2008 on Windows 2008 server
to
Reporting Services 2012 with Always On on Windows 2012 server.
I have a report that expects a date in the querystring: "...&DateTo=17/09/2014"
This use to work in the previous environment and now fails !
I logged onto the server with the credentials that runs SSRS and changed its regional settings to French(France): It didn't helped.
I tried passing in the date otherwise "...&DateTo=09/17/2014": it worked !
I tried changing the regional settings in my IE and it worked but that can't be a solution... it is still working on my Windows 2008 server... unless there is a statement from Microsoft that it explains that now it works only like this but I would be surprised... is it ?
I also saw that changing a directive in the web page can help but, why did it stopped working, is it the handling of a default value for regional settings that changed in SSRS ?
I would need help to understand this, thank you for any help you can provide.
Regards,
Claude VERNIER
Hi Claude,
Based on my research, SQL Server doesn’t supports DD/MM/YYYY date format. When we insert “17/09/2014” value in a date type column, it pops up an error message that “String was not recognized as a valid DateTime”. It means that the value “17/09/2014” is acted
as “2014/17/09” string. So in your scenario, we cannot get the expect results.
To work around this issue, we should change it to “09/17/2014”.

Hi there.
I had a brief foray some while ago into Java, got frustrated, put it aside.
Well now I've started again with a problem.
If I were to want to parse only sentences of "dd-mm-yyyy" (date format) would (or is it should?) I use if/else type statements? I don't want to specify that we can't have the 99th day of the 99th month or anything like that but I'd like to make sure that it accepts only the format ..2 numerals hyphen 2 numerals hyphen 4 numerals.
Or should I be researching the tokeniser? From what I've seen it's not used with if/else.
From reading this you could probably guess I haven't got much idea.
A pointer in the right direction would be appreciated.OK
Hmm'
Input from keyboard,
recognise input,
give back to the output if in correct format
or give an error.
I found some explanation to SimpleDateFormat although I don't yet know how to apply it :-(
Well, I only asked for a pointer didn't I :-)
Thanks anyway. -
Strange Date Format: April 16, R.O.C. 98 23:11:44 MESZ
Hello,
my Snow Leopard Mail.app suddenly shows me a strange date format:
April 16, R.O.C. 98 23:11:44 MESZ
(also see http://de.tinypic.com/r/153pjpz/3)
My question would be, what does R.O.C. 98 mean and how can I get rid of it?
Thank you very much!
TillReboot solved it. In these times, you don't even think about something this trivial.

BC4J Query by example for dates uses wrong date format
When querying by example on date fields, I get the following nested exceptions:
oracle.jbo.SQLStmtException: JBO-27121: SQL error during statement execution.
JBO-26044: Error while getting estimated row count for view object
and
java.sql.SQLException: ORA-01830: date format picture ends before converting entire input string.
It would seem to be caused by the following clause added to the end of the entity object's query:
"QRSLT WHERE ( ( (DATE_FIELD = TO_DATE('23/12/2003', 'yyyy-mm-dd')) ) )"
which causes problems as our entity objects use a 'dd/MM/yyyy' date format.
Is there a way we can make the query by example use the same date format as the rest of our app?Im not an expert on this but I see nobody is replying so this might help you. I've been having problems with dates as well and Im pretty sure that the attached formatter isn't used in find mode. That is because the java date class (can't remember which one) used by the BC4J has the format yyyy-mm-dd. I don't now if it is possible to change it but I got around the problem by writing my own domain. You can take a look at Toystore demo, by Steve Muench, that uses a custom date domain, ExpirationDate (see the code below). It is mapped to a VARCHAR column in the database but it is possible to map it to a DATE column.
I have been watching the postings with questions about dates and I have noticed that a lot of people have problems with this but I havent seen an answer yet.
package toystore.model.datatypes.common;
import java.io.Serializable;
import java.text.SimpleDateFormat;
import java.util.Calendar;

import oracle.jbo.domain.DataCreationException;
import oracle.jbo.domain.DomainInterface;
import oracle.jbo.domain.DomainOwnerInterface;
// --- File generated by Oracle Business Components for Java.
* This custom datatype implements an immutable domain class that
* maps to a VARCHAR column containing values like '10/2004' representing
* expiration dates of credit cards. We could have chosen to implement
* this as a domain that stores itself in a DATE column instead of a
* VARCHAR column, but since the Java Pet Store demo schema stored the
* information in a VARCHAR column, we decided to illustrate how to
* accommodate that case using domains.
public class ExpirationDate implements DomainInterface, Serializable {
private Date mDate;
private String mDateAsString;
protected ExpirationDate() {
mDate = new Date();
convertDateToStringFormat();
* Return the value of the expiration date as a java.util.Date
public Date getDateValue() {
return mDate;
* Allow expiration date to be constructed from two
* strings representing month and year
public ExpirationDate(String monthVal, String yearVal) {
this(monthVal+'/'+yearVal);
public ExpirationDate(String val) {
validate(val);
convertDateToStringFormat();
* The getData() method must return the type of object that JDBC will
* see for storage in the database. Since we want this ExpirationDate
* datatype to map to a VARCHAR column in the database, we return the
* string format of the date
public Object getData() {
return mDateAsString;
* <b>Internal:</b> <em>Applications should not use this method.</em>
public void setContext(DomainOwnerInterface owner, Transaction trans, Object obj) {
* Performs basic validation on strings that represent expiration dates
* in the format of MM/YYYY. Note that in the process of testing whether
* the string represents a valid month and year, we end up setting
* the private member variable mDate with the date value, so if the
* validate() method does not throw an exception, the mDate will be setup.
protected void validate(String val) {
if (val != null) {
if (val.length() != 7 ||
val.charAt(2) != '/' ||
!isAllDigitsExceptSlashAtPositionTwo(val) ||
!isValidMonthAndYear(val)) {

* Returns true if all digits except position 2 (zero-based) are digits
private boolean isAllDigitsExceptSlashAtPositionTwo(String val) {
for (int z=0, max = val.length(); z < max; z++) {
if (z != 2 && !Character.isDigit(val.charAt(z))) {
return false;
return true;
* Returns true if the val string, assumed to be in "MM/YYYY" format
* is a valid month and year value, setting the mDate member variable
* if they are valid.
private boolean isValidMonthAndYear(String val) {
try {
int month = Integer.parseInt(val.substring(0,2));
int year = Integer.parseInt(val.substring(3));
Calendar c = Calendar.getInstance();
c.setLenient(false);
c.set(year,month-1,1); // Month is zero-based !
mDate = c.getTime();
catch (IllegalArgumentException i) {
return false;
return true;

return mDateAsString;
* Convert mDate to String format
private void convertDateToStringFormat() {

Cisco WCS Date Format mm/dd/yyyy

How to change the date format from default to mm-dd-yyyy?
Hi,
There is a requirement to show the current date in an error message at the attribute level. That is, if the user input a date in a text field that is earlier than today's date, then an error message must immediately pop up with today's date in the message. To achieve this we are using a token expression in the EO ( Under Validation rules) . The token expression uses adf.currentDate to get today's date.
The problem is that the expression extracts the date in the form of yyyy-mm-dd. What expression should I use to get the current date format in mm/dd/yyyy ? Can I modify the adf.currentDate expression in some way to get the desired format?
Thanks,
AnandYou could write a custom EO method to return today's date in the specific format. Then access it via the Groovy adf.object expression.

Converting date format MM/DD/YYYY to DD/MM/YYYY in ISA B2B App
Hi All,
We have implemented CRM ISA 5.0 (B2B) application. Is it possible to change the date format to DD/MM/YYYY in ISA B2B web application. Now currently it is showing MM/DD/YYYY in all the pages. We need to change this format to DD/MM/YYYY, where and which the date shows the current format of MM/DD/YYYY. Is there any way in XCM settings to change the date format to achieve this. Do we require custom coding ?
Kindly suggest us!!!
Thanks and Regards,
SaravananHi ,
If the sol doesn't work with the system settings, do try passing the values in char format after concatenating appropriately adding "-".
This ll work.
date = '02252010'. "mmddyyyy"format
concatenate date+2(2) '-'
date+0(2) '-'
date+4(4) into var.
var-25-02-2010dd-mm-yyyy format.
pass the variable 'var' to the webshop/web application. -
Problem with date format "dd-MM-yyyy"
hi all,
i am using jdev 10.1.3.2
My application ADF Swing app.
in my database i have a table employee which contains "birthday".
my problem is that i must use date format"dd-MM-yyyy".
i added this format into "formatinfo.xml" file.
than i choose it in my EO.
i create a form which contains employees.
for example i have an employee with a birthday=25-10-1970
in my text field if user puts "1970-10-25"'which is not the best format) he will have a correct result "25-10-1970"
but if user puts "25-10-1970" he will have as result "21-02-0031" which is not the real value.
please help me.
thanks.
PS: i did some research before posting but i didn't find yetRouz,
Did you try what i said before?
* Open you EntityObject
* Expand the attribute tree
* Choose your DOB attribute
* Choose the Control hints pane on the right
* Choose Formater: Simple date format
* Choose Format mask dd-MM-yyyy
Run your application and try it.
This is how i change the format and it works perfectly.
I uses the correct format to show the date and it enables me to edit the date using the format mask dd-MM-yyyy
Edit: I just tried it myself. I can only reproduce it by removing my mask. Ergo, the application expects the default american format yyyy-MM-dd. By entering a date in the format dd-MM-yyyy the framework will convert it to yyyy-MM-dd and you'll end up with 0031-02-21.
CONCLUSION follow the steps i discribed above to set your mask and you'll be fine.
