Configuring the date format of a date field

  1. In the desktop application, select Maintenance > System Administration > Maintenance Forms.
  2. Click Edit beside the maintenance form that contains the date field that you want to configure.
    All mobility maintenance forms start with MOB. For example, MOB_TIMESHEET.
  3. In the Form Fields section, locate your date field.
    For date fields, the field control, specified in the Field UI column, is MobDateUI.
  4. In the Field Parameters column, specify the format parameter to change the date format.
    For example, to set the date format to the SHORT_DATE format, specify format=SHORT_DATE.

    The date formats are defined in the Date Formats page (Maintenance > System Administration > Date Formats).

    You can also specify a specific format, for example, format=MMMMM d, yyyy.

    If the format parameter is not specified, the date format is set to MOB_SHORT_DATE by default.

  5. Click Save at the bottom of the Form Fields section to save the field configuration.
