How to set the default date format in Adobe Sign?

[warkem]

Hi,

Is there a way to set the default date format in Adobe sign so I don't have to edit the field and change it everytime I add a date field?

Cheers,

J

I absolutely agree with lcG45208. Adobe sign is not a cheap program, it stinks that there isn't an option to set the default date format.  Time is money and when things do not work properly it is very frustrating. I will be checking for different options.

[default7rnpr7ahymi7]

Yeah, this is crazy. I have other options, I've always just used Adobe because it was easier. I will not be using Acrobat for anything but viewing in the future.

Aren't giant companies with no interest in customer service because they have near monopolies great??

This is nuts. Adobe, you have to do better. You're a huge company, this is a PITA for your US Adobe Sign customers, and you can fix it.

I want Euro (but in full, so 16 February 2024, dd/mm/yyyy would be OK) but get mm/dd/yy. Others have US and want Euro format.

It's about time users were given a choice of format here.

This is the most frustrating thing ever. I didn't notice the default change until after a client signed, so now it looks like the contract was signed on July 3, 2024 instead of March 7, 2024. You'd think this would be a no-brainer to allow people to choose their own default. If they can't do that, at least force us to choose at each contract sent out so we don't forget and wind up with a misleading date on contracts.

I'm with you. I specified the "Date of Signing" field and didn't notice the change either until after a very contentious negotiation was finally settled with a signed agreement and now the other party is disputing the signing date. 

[elizabethh30562639]

Oh no. That is my nightmare. Fortunately my clients understood and we just made an adendum about the date format.

Add my voice to the chorus of discontent on this matter.  If there is a default setting, there is a way to change the default setting.  Adorably the signature panel is showing "date" in yet a different format that could be left to misinterpretation.  Good job Adobe!  If you're going to FORCE a default, choose one that includes the alpha month so that it will at least not be left to misinterpretation.  While I'm complaining, I've lost the ability to add attachments during the signing process and now have to combine the file BEFORE I start the signing process.  Thanks for changing my processes for me without making the process more efficient.  This update was obviously designed by someone that DOES NOT DO THE PROCESS!

I reverted to the 'old' Acrobat to fix the single file issue. 

[Clint25901600s8oz]

YES!!! That sucks, too. It is no longer easy and efficient to add
attachments. It's a total PITA! Who did they beta test this on that said
it's a great idea?

Hi Everyone! I've been dealing with this issue for months as a CPA sending out e-file forms. Today was the first day my Adobe Signatire remembered my date format from the prior e-files I sent out. Glad it's fixed and hopefully the rest of you will have success. What grind. All the best,

Bill

Deleting and reinstalling worked for me. I have tried it on 4 separate accounts, mine and family members, and it worked like a charm every time.
