Question

Is there a way we can get a manual input of 01/02/22 in a date field to default to 01/02/2022 rather than 01/02/1922?

It seems like the default behaviour of Mendix (Java? UNIX EPOCH?) is to default the year to 1922, instead of 2022. Is there a way to change this behaviour?

Mendix uses the 80/20 rule to guess the century when parsing dates as explained here:

parseDateTime

This is based on the Java SimpleDateFormat which is used in Mendix; details can be found here:
