Providing the best experience with the product is what we aim for, Dr Ann.

 

The option to change the time format for dd/mm/yyyy in QucikBooks Self-Employed (QBSE) is unavailable. The default format we have is mm/dd/yyyy. You'll want to check for a third-party application that can help you with this one. You can check out the apps that are compatible with QuickBooks at this link: https://quickbooks.intuit.com/app/apps/home/

 

Just in case you are using QuickBooks Online (QBO) version, you can change your date settings by following the steps below: 

  1. Click the Gear icon on the top menu.
  2. Choose Account and Settings.
  3. Select the Advanced menu and click into the section Other Preferences.
  4. Choose your preferred date format, then Save and Done.

 

After changing this, you may need to refresh the page and/or sign out and back in to view the changes. To keep updated with any upcoming QuickBooks updates and enhancements, feel free to visit these blogs:
