I have a new CRM 2016 instance and I have localised to the United Kingdom in the settings - which is fine.
I have attempted to import 2 contact records via .csv One has a "created on" date in the format of 10/08/2015 (which would comply with both US and UK date formatting) - this imports fine.
The second contact record has a "created on" date in the format of 28/01/2015 (which only complies with UK date formatting) - this fails with this message:
1 | Import Create | The source data is not in the required format | Created On | 28/01/2015 |
I have ensured that the "Created On" field in the CRM 2016 Contact Entity is set to "Date only" format. Also FYI the data I am importing originates from a CRM 4 instance, also with the "Created on" field set to "Date only".
This leads me to believe the CRM 2016 import function is error checking against US date formatting and not UK as it should be.
Is this a bug?
