Change of date formate does not change in signature date

@Michael.Rave 

Thank you so much

I did change the date format before signing - but I did not realise that I had to change it on “signing and sending” settings as well.

I too am having this dating issue with Docusign. My regional date settings are correct (08-Nov-2024) however my stamped “Date Signed” always appears in the US format 11/08/2024.

I cannot see a section within “signing and sending” to change this to the UK format. Can someone please point me in the right direction?

Hello,

I’m also having the issue.

I switch my preferences regional settings to french, set the signed date format to dd/MM/yyyy but it says me that the format is invalid with MM/dd/yyyy.

Can anyone help me ? 

Same problem here.

It is strange: there is a Regional Setting under both “Manage Profile” and “My Preferences” (screenshot below) - and they can even differ. Now I set the same date format and time zone under both “Manage Profile” and “My Preferences”, created a new document from scratch and still the date format will not update. Which is particularly bad because it is stuck in the US format, where they put the month before the day and this creates confusion everywhere else in the world. 

Hello ​@CHales, ​@Antoine, ​@Leonida,

Thank you for reaching out to the Docusign Community.

Would it be feasible for you to change the format at the account level settings? Document Date and Time Format, the document date and time format settings determine how dates and times are displayed when signing documents. The current date format determines how the date is shown in the "Date Signed" fields, and also affects date data validation formatting. The current time format determines how the time is displayed in the "Date Signed" fields, and can be set to "None" if the time should not be included.

Thanks for the reply Christopher.

my screenshot above shows the “highest level” settings that I can get to. If there is a further “Account level” for the settings, than it seems to be out of reach for me. I will contact my administrator in the hope that they can change it

Hello ​​@Leonida,

The account Admin should have access to that setting.

I checked with our Admin and they indeed have access to that setting. Problem is, they are in the US and will not change the format so I am stuck with that - which is a bit frustrating.

Anyway thanks for your help, Christopher.
