Can I change the date format to dd/mm/yyyy for invoices in Australia?

The title of this thread has been edited from the original: Date format.

Hi folks,

I'm in Australia, and I'd like to change the date format on invoices from mm/dd/yyyy, to dd/mm/yyyy. 

Is this possible? 

Cheers,

Lisa

Hi @LisaDee, 

Thanks for reaching out!

I've taken a look on my own Square Dashboard (using Google Chrome as my browser), and the date format for me is automatically set to dd/mm/yyyy. Additionally, on the Square Invoices app on an iPhone 13, the format appears as: 8 November 2024.

Could you please share a screenshot showing where you're seeing the mm/dd/yyyy format, so I can take a closer look?

Thanks!

I have this issue also and it is causing me so much confusion with trying to book appointments ahead. I am also in Australia and I need the global format. Why is there no setting in Square to change this. I feel like I need to change platforms.

Sorry to hear about this issue, @Sarah-888.

Would you mind sharing a screenshot of the date format you're currently seeing on your end (without sharing any personal information such a full names, email addresses or contact numbers)?

I'll keep an eye out for your reply!

I need those dates at the top of every day to reverse so I can see it in non-US format.

I don't have permission to upload images...

Actually, it just let me. I need those dates at the top of every day to reverse so I can see it in non-US format.

Thank you for sending that through, @Sarah-888.  

Looking at my Appointments calendar on my own Square Dashboard (using Google Chrome), the date format in week view is automatically set to day/month.

In this case, I recommend reaching out to our Support Team so they can investigate your account settings further, and escalate your case to our engineers if required.

Sorry I couldn’t be of more help - if you have any other questions, please let me know.
