Date-List not showing the right date in IE and N/A in Chrome

Hi Support,

I have a list of dates which I placed in Date-List and dates are being displayed wrong.  Its KEY that this works in IE, it will be a bonus if Chrome is working too.

The main issue is a regular date not rendering the correct date value?

We are using the Australia Region (see attached: List)

SCENARIO A (CALCULATED DATE FIELD)
This date field is rendering the data correctly, and working correctly in Chrome, but not IE
the ERROR in IE => date = n/a


SCENARIO B
The Expire Date field is NOT providing the date data correctly in IE and displays n/a in Chrome:

This IE and dates are INCORRECT:
This is Chrome, and n/a is display

You are facing this issue because you are using non-standard date format, and each browser will handle it differently. 

All you have to do is to tell ShortPoint what is the date format you are using.


Edit ShortPoint and in Advanced tab you will find date format option



If you are using Australian date format in your SharePoint calendars, then you should add this: DD-MMM-YY
