I need to change the date format within the VAT return

Post by nat » 11 Sep 2006, 15:35

Please advise me where to do this. I know its simple but its not coming back to me right now.

When I want to do the Vat return, its telling me my date format is wrong, ie its using the American way instead of normal DDMMYYYY. Thanks.

Im using version 12, just purchased a new computer, didnt have this on the other system.........

Hi Nat,

Have you checked that in >Settings >Company Preferences your Country is set as United Kingdom?

I expect the issue is your "regional settings"

go to the control panel, open regional setting and check that it is all correctly set, sounds like your PC thinks it is American. If you set the date format, time zone and all the rest, it should clear up this issue and a host more that you have not yet encountered.
