Can you change the date format of reports


Jason Wilson (31925) | asked Sep 05 '19, 4:32 a.m.
Hi all,

I am new to using Report Builder, and I am wondering if anyone is able to assist me please.

I have a report that I created and part of the report is to display the date a certain action occurred. Now due to customers being located in different geographical areas I am trying to fix the format of the date so that there is no ambiguity.

Currently the report displays the date as '8/29/19 12:00 AM' (mmddyy), however so that it is consistent with everything else we do I would like to be able to change this to '29 Aug 2019 12:00 AM' (DDMmmYYYY).

Can anyone help and advise if this is possible please.
