Hi all
I need help with Data Shuttle.
I use it a lot, however I have encountered an issue that I cannot resolve.
We take data from another platform and export it via csv. files. We use Datashuttle to collect this data and put it into Smartsheet to use in our reports and dashboards.
The issue that I have encountered is with the date format from the csv file. It converts it to US date format during the Data Shuttle process. This causes massive changes to items that have an end date (contracts etc), for example, a contract ending 3rd December, becomes ending on 12th March.
It does not do this in all cells, just the cells that have a date with a zero omitted in the first day. Example: 03/10/2023 in the program platform is captured in the excel sheet as 3/10/2023 (dd/mm/yyyy format) and this appears in the Smartsheet as 10/03/23.
Items listed as 30/09/2023 in the excel sheet appear in Smartsheet as 30/10/23
The excel (csv.) is in Aus date format.
Chrome is in Aus format.
My personal settings on Smartsheet are in Aus format.
The data shuttle process does not permit me to change the "column type" from "Auto" and if I change the recipient sheet to "Date format" as a requirement, the workflow fails.
I have endeavoured to resolve this with Smartsheet support, but due to the time differences, this has been a nightmare to address.
