Date Format Issue -- Year Accepts 2 Digits and Saves Incorrect Date

Question

Although the date format in JIRA is MM/DD/YYYY it will accept a 2 digit year and tally it from the year 0000.  For instance, 03/02/13 will reflect as 03/02/0013 once saved.

Hi,

Please verify the date picker in System > General configuration > Advanced similar to the following:

jira.date.picker.javascript.format=%d/%m/%Y
jira.date.time.picker.javascript.format=%d/%m/%Y %H:%M
