Description Joe Morris 2015-12-08 12:45:56 UTC
The date field seems fixed to DD/MM/YYYY, even though I chose ISO Date format in Settings, Configure Skrooge, General, Date Display. The date column of transactions does follow the settings, but the Date field for entering a transaction date seems not to follow. Since it is almost opposite, it is slightly confusing.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Set Date Display to ISO Date in Settings, Configure Skrooge, General, Date Display
2. Open Operations page
3. Date field is DD/MM/YYYY, but date column is YYYY-MM-DD

Actual Results:  
Conflicting date displays.

Expected Results:  
Both the date column and Date Field should follow Date Display setting.

I can't say this is a bug, more of a feature request. It is totally usable as is.

Hi,

I can't fix this because with the date format options, we can have following dates:
31/12/2015                          => OK. Not problem to parse this kind of date
Jeudi 31 décembre 2015  => KO. I don't know how to parse this kind of date. And do you really want to enter dates in this format?
Yesterday                              => KO
2015/31/12                         => OK but not aligned with the partial date entering (example: 12 for the previous 12, 30/12 for the previous 30 of December)

That's why I won't fix this bug.
The option in settings is only for "Display". Not for entering.
