Can I change date field format to “dd/mm/yyyy? ( not custom field)

[Vera Valshonok]

Hi , I am looking for a way to change a date format to “dd/mm/yyyy. Is it possible?

Hi @Vera Valshonok 

Please refer to the following Atlassian documentation

Change date and time formats

These settings don’t apply to the issue view, issue create, list view, edit sprint, board settings, and issue search experiences. To format their dates and times, go to your language preferences.

You customize the way times and dates are presented to users throughout the Jira user interface. When specifying dates and times, they should be based on the Java SimpleDateFormat.

1. Choose > System.

2. Under USER INTERFACE, select Look and feel.

3. In the Date / time formats section, click the value of the element you want to configure, then update the value as necessary.

Issue date/time fields show a relative instead of absolute date/time format. For example, "Yesterday" would appear instead of "20 May 2013 12:00 PM". You can still see the absolute date/time by hovering over the field. The date/time format reverts to absolute after a week.

Here are some further examples of US date/time configurations: 

Preferred Date/Time	Value of the jira.date.time.picker.java.format property	Value of the jira.date.time.picker.javascript.format property
2010-10-15 08:50	yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm	%Y-%m-%d %H:%M (see ISO 8601 format)
15/Oct/10 8:50 AM	dd/MMM/yy h:mm a	%d/%b/%y %l:%M %p
10/15/10 08:50 AM	MM/dd/yy hh:mm a	%m/%d/%y %I:%M %p
