The date does not use the expected format

This defect is fixed automatically. Test your invoice to find out whether it is affected, then apply the correction with the Pipeline Pro plan.

Why this error happens

The discrepancy almost always comes from the host language's default ISO serialisation. The value carried is correct, only its representation is not.

How to fix it

The conversion is deterministic and lossless. It is applied, then traced.
