Date Format

Arpana Valji

Hi everyone - apologies if the question has been asked already, but I couldn't find it in my search of discussions before posting here.

I'm trying to change the date format (I'm in the UK) from M/D/Y to D/M/Y.

I've gone to the cog on the top right of my project plan and in project settings but it's not working.

Any ideas please?

Thanks!

Hi @Arpana Valji

Where do you want to show the dates?

Please have a look at the below resources with instructions on how to change it in two ways.

Did that work/help?

I hope that helps!

Be safe and have a fantastic week!

Yes! This worked...!

Thanks - does it mean I have to make this change every time - or is there a way to apply it globally on all new plans?

Thank you!! 😀

Excellent!

You're more than welcome!

The account setting is global, but you can then change it in each sheet.
