Hi all,
A client of ours is filling out a Job date on an initial form. This form is then saved and the metadata captured into the repository for later use.
The client will then mark the job as complete which kicks off a new workflow. This new workflow retrieves the original form data stored (from the initially saved metadata) and invokes a new business process using some of the data it retrieves.
The issue I'm having is when workflow attempts to fill the date variable out in the new form, it doesn't fill it out at all. When checking the workflow web designer, the error " Message:The value '30/06/2018' could not be parsed as a date.[Field=Date_of_Clean]"
Couple of information points:
- Both date formats on both processes are set to dd/MM/yyyy
- Region settings set to Australia on administrator and local system
- Region settings set to Australia on google chrome.
I attempted to create a new field in the form which was set to MM/dd/yyyy and under it's advanced settings of the field, told it to = the other field variable (which was set to dd/MM/yyyy)
This worked on the form itself and automatically converted the two fields, to show both formats. From this, I attempted to save the form to the repository and capture the new date field as MM/dd/yyyy in the metadata, however, this automatically converted the metadata to dd/MM/yyyy (even after changing the field format of the metadata to custom and changing it to display MM/dd/yyyy)
One other point to note, is in the workflow web designer, the dates shown for all activities (e.g. Workflow start date) display in MM/dd/yyyy.
Any help would be appreciated.
