Acceptable date formats

Several fields in the Oracle Argus Safety user interface enable you to enter dates. Fields that accept full dates appear in the dd-mmm-yyyy format.

Appropriate formats for entering English dates are as follows:

  • DDMMMYYYY where MMM is the three-character abbreviation for the month (such as MAR, APR, JUN, and so on.)
  • DDMMMYY where MMM is the three-character abbreviation for the month and YY is the two-digit numeric value for the year (such as 09, 10, and so on.)
  • DDMMYYYY where MM is the two-digit value identifying the month (such as 01 = January, 02 = February, etc.) and YYYY is the four-digit value for the year.

The dot (.), dash (-) and backslash(/) are acceptable separators.
