Facing an issue with statements received on monthly basis.
The period from 01-12 of days are considered as months, no issues with the period from 13-31.

No matter which format i select, i still face same problem. Resulting me to enter the dates manually to fix it.

Average no. of transaction monthly are around 1k.

The excel file which i receive is being generated from Oracle Web Application.
I have done everything from my side but couldn't find a permanent solution for it.

Also how i can upload the sample excel file? Which web service do you suggest for sharing the file.

Thanks in advance.
 
Hi,
give this a try & see if helps you:

Select the column containing your dates

Choose Data > Text to Columns…
Select "Delimited" > click Next
Uncheck all delimiters > click Next
Select data column format "Date: DMY" > click Finish

Hi,
I just copy paste data from here and see that some of the cells have date format and others cells having General format. Please change general to date.

Thanks dmt32 & Lokesh_kumar, i tried it but unfortunately not working.
Any more suggestions, i believe it requires some sort of macro to convert in one go.


Sorry for the late reply, was busy in monthly closing.
