The issue reported is for the date format, not the - sign prior to the number.  Please review.

Which two (or more?) languages have you tried, and what date formats do you get and what do you expect?  Does Windows show different date formats for those two languages?

Sorry with the confusion about the minus sign. That was my bad.

Did you try if the problem persists in 5.1.0? A newer version (5.1.0) can be found on https://binary-factory.kde.org/job/KMyMoney_Release_win64/  Don't worry about the recent failures: those are due to a problem in a dependent library.

No issues, I can understand.  I have tried in latest nightly builds as well, same issue.

I have tried to change the Microsoft Windows dates settings to India, restarted the KMyMoney, it worked as desired.

Thank you.
