Iā€™d like to try and reproduce this. Can you please provide more details?

  • Where youā€™re trying this, which module, which screen?
  • what you type
  • what you get in the field
  • what you think you should be getting instead
  • what is your PHP date.timezone setting?

I was playing with different values and this is what I foundā€¦

It works if you use a format like dd/mm/yyyy
It doesnā€™t work with other formats, but I get an error, not just a 1970 dateā€¦

Iā€™ve been playing around with different values.

it works with values in formats like dd/mm/yyyy

it doesnā€™t work with other formats, but I get an error and it refuses to save, it doesnā€™t just save a mysterious 1970 dateā€¦

Hi @pgr

  • Where youā€™re trying this, which module, which screen?
    I am trying this in project and project task module, while inline editing
  • what you type
    In inline editing I am selecting a date less than start date
  • what you get in the field
    if date is less than finish date it shows 1970 date and if it is greater than finish date it shows correct date
  • what you think you should be getting instead
    I should see what i select not 1970 date

How could be finish date less than(previous than) start date for project or project task? :thinking:

Youā€™re still not giving all the information I asked, sorryā€¦ :slight_smile:

The timezone setting is all-important in this case.

And you could try the other formats to see if it works:

mm/dd/yyyy

such as 12/31/2009

I am using this, I treid other format as well but its still showing epoch date

In Admin / Diagnostics / phpinfo

what is the date.timezone setting?

This is your definition at the PHP level; the ones you showed in the screenshot are at the SuiteCRM app level (also useful to know, thanks)

its date.timezone=UTC

15

You need something like this: (Replace Europe/London with your location)

date.timezone = "Europe/London"

# List of Supported Timezones

16

Will it not support UTC?

17

Where are you setting this value?

18

Php.ini

in php.ini

19

You can try to set like this:

date.timezone = ā€œUTCā€

Make sure you restart web server.

If need specific:

date.timezone = ā€œAmerica/New_Yorkā€

sure, thanks for reply
