Description
For example, a record in the list shows a date of 15-03-1995 (15 March 1995). If you use the column search method to search for "15-03-1995", no result is returned. However, if you search for "1995-03-15", the record is displayed in the list.
Steps to Reproduce
Using a Geneva instance with demo data installed, perform the following steps:
-
Impersonate an ITIL User.
-
Navigate to Self-Service > My Profile.
-
Select the date format dd-MM-yyyy.
-
Click Update.
-
In the application navigator, type sla.list and press the Enter key.
-
Click the gear icon
to personalize the list and show the Begins column.
Only one record should appear in the list, and it should show a date in the Begins column of 11-07-2006.
-
Click the search icon
to show the column search headers.
-
Type 11-07-2006 into the Begins column's search field and press the Enter key.
-
Type 2006-07-11 into the Begins column's search field and press the Enter key.
Expected behavior
-
For the search in Step 8 to return one search result because "11-07-2006" matches the date in the Begins column of 11-07-2006.
-
For the search in Step 9 to return no search results because "2006-07-11" does not match the 11-07-2009 date in the Begins column.
Actual behavior
-
Step 8 returns no search results because the search string is not in the format YYYY-mm-dd.
-
Step 9 returns one search result because the search string is in the format YYYY-mm-dd.
Workaround
Use the list filter instead of the list column search. List filters respect the date format currently in use by the system.
