How to change date format in Jira cloud ?

[Menaka]

Hi All ,
How to change the date format in Jira cloud ? 

I cant seem to see the release versions dates in the default format MM-DD-YY on the side panel of Agile Board (Scrum ). However I am able to pull the date in default format from calendar in the Release tab . 

Thanks  much ,

Hi @Menaka,

You can try going to 'System --> General Configuration'.

Then click on 'Advanced Settings'

Here, you can change the date formats accordingly.

Hope this helps.

Thanks,
Vamsi

Hi

The date format still shows as 8/221/23 under the version panel in Jira cloud .  the advance settings indicate the following 

jira.date.picker.java.format  MM/DD/YYYY

jira.date.time.picker.java.format  dd/MMM/yy h:mm a

jira.date.time.picker.javascript.format %e/%b/%y %I:%M %p

And release tab date format remains as MMM/DD/YYYY. 
How to have consistency ? and where do I set this ?

Thanks appreciate it

Hi @Menaka ,

your date/time format is a system-wide configuration and can be modified by a Jira admin under administration - system - look and feel.

Seems like the format on the issue view screen is tied to the user's selected language, which is odd.

Yes, it's very odd and a major shortcoming of Cloud.
