Date Formats
The format MM/DD/YY (month/date/year) is unique to the United States, although it is also used in Canada and has been adopted by a few other countries. At the same time, most of Europe uses DD/MM/YY (date/month/year), while Japan uses YY/MM/DD (year/month/date).
The default format of the dates printed on documents generated in OfficeRnD Flex is the European DD/MM/YY (date/month/year) format. Our team will help you localize the dates according to your country's date formats during your onboarding.
You can also create your own custom date format using the following abbreviations:
