Strange Dates after you have converted from Harvester Offline?

If some of your employee Start dates or Birth dates look strange, they may have been reversed (year, month, day instead of day, month,year). This means the dates followed your excel date notation used in the import from harvester offline. To Fix this: You will then need to manually edit the Date on Harvester online on each employee and it will rectify. The conversion file from the offline is not meant to be opened in excel before importing. It is a csv file and sometimes excel will change the dates if your excel settings use a different date format. eg American Month/Day/Year Check your date format is correct on your computer. It should be set to English(UK) or English(Zambia). To know how to change this, type "Date" in help and look for help on "Date format needs to be dd/mmm/yyy"
