As discussed here (https://mail.kde.org/pipermail/kmymoney/2020-August/003527.html), KMyMoney should provide a default, unambiguous date format. Currently the displayed date format is based on the QT environment settings. There are a number of problems with this: 1. Your locale may set a format as MM-DD-YY. Which leads to the well know date ambiguity. 2. With a two digit year it's impossible to enter date earlier than 1990. 3. If your locale displays DD-MM-YY, but you really want DD-MM-YYYY, than your only option is to change the LC_TIME environment variable to something which uses this short ISO-8601 YYYY format. But this also changes the date picker. So now you can't read the days and months anymore, because they are in a language you don't speak. Ideally, for financial applications there should not be a dependency on the locale of the system it is running on. There should be a short list of formats you can choose from (example: DD-MM-YY, DD-MM-YYYY, MM-DD-YY, MM-DD-YYYY) which are documented and consistent regardless of environment. 2218354 1 thb 2023-03-25 14:30:33 +0000 Git commit 7e1fdb6b63c8b6c7a07d2732049842674b9e4134 by Thomas Baumgart. Committed on 25/03/2023 at 14:29. Pushed by tbaumgart into branch 'master'. Use consistent date format throughout the application The format still relies on the current locale, but a central location in the code is now used which provides a consistent 4 digit year format for dates.
