2352071 - The HRIS Sync Mapping of a EC Date field to a Custom EP field is the Incorrect Format

Symptom

You have defined an  HRIS Sync Mapping to map an EC Date field to a custom EP field for example:

<hris-mapping>
   <hris-field-ref refid="start-date"/>
   <standard-element-ref refid="custom09"/>
</hris-mapping>

The value is mapping across in the wrong format, for example the value in custom09 is in format "YYYY/MM/DD" and you wish it to be in format "DD/MM/YYYY"

Image/data in this KBA is from SAP internal systems, sample data, or demo systems. Any resemblance to real data is purely coincidental.

Environment

Cause
