Fixed
Autofill Correct Year
Problem
When a date is entered using the MM/DD/YY format, the date is automatically converted to the MM/DD/YYYY format. We observed that if a DOB was entered with the year “/68” or earlier, it was incorrectly converted to the 2000s.
Example
DOB Entered: 12/09/65
Expected Autofill Date: 12/09/1965
Actual Autofill Date: 12/09/2065
Note: While this behavior was primarily observed when entering a patient’s DOB, any fields that require a date to be entered may have exhibited this behavior.
Solution
AL-632 - The date conversion logic has been updated so that dates entered using the two-digit year format will autofill with the four-digit format correctly for dates in or preceding “/68”.
Dates entered with the years “00”-”24” will add the “20” prefix. Any date entered with the years “25”-”99” will have the “19” prefix added.
Note: If a future date is manually entered using the (MM/DD/YYYY) format, no change will occur. A message will appear on the screen indicating that the date entered is invalid.
