Currently policy activation dates are only configurable in US date format.

Is this possible to change to UK format?

My policy nearly kicked in and would have been disastrous.

JSS is 9.2

something possibly related to this that i've never been bothered to raise here is that things like log lists sorted by date/time, i can make no sense of the actual order they end up in. is this something only non-US people see?

He means US Dates are like: MM-DD-YYYY where as UK date format is DD-MM-YYYY

So dates like: 04-11-2013 could be confused with 11-04-2013.

It only become obvious with dates like: 07-20-2013 vs 20-07-2013
since months can only go up to 12..
where as days can go up to 31

Where as the computer format: YYYY-MM-DD would be the most universal date format..
