Describe the bug
When entering a value in a Date control, the field is not filled correctly. Examples in GIFs below.

What I do is calling the SetValue function on the estimated close date with a common european date format. The entered value get erased before the driver is finished entering it which results in an invalid value.
I tried with different formats for the DateTime as well (e.g. "MM/dd/yyyy"), but unsuccessfully.

Please assist, thank you.

Special formatting / display

Code to reproduce

public void OpportunityCreateTest()
{
    using (var xrmApp = new XrmApp(_client))
    {
        xrmApp.OnlineLogin.Login(_xrmUri, _username, _password, _loginAction)
        xrmApp.Navigation.OpenApp(_myApp);
        xrmApp.Navigation.OpenSubArea("My CRM", "Opportunities");
        xrmApp.CommandBar.ClickCommand("New");
        xrmApp.Entity.SetValue("estimatedclosedate", DateTime.Today.AddMonths(1), "dd.MM.yyyy"); 
    }
}

Can you check #788? Maybe is the same problem.

Thanks Angel, it's similar but not the same problem. In #788 it was solved by removing the format option, which did not work for me.
Without the format option, the time is also entered. The field is date-only, so that cannot work from my point of view.

I tried changing the date format of the test user's personal options from German to English (US) as well, but no luck either.

Do we have resolution for the above issue. I too face the same issue while entering dates in Date fields

[TYLEROL]

aalad - Using English (United States) personal format options, and example formatting below. I was able to set a value on the DateTimeControl for both DateOnly and Date+Time control formats.

I'll have this change reviewed and merged into the develop branch today, could you kindly let me know if you are successful with this sample code below?

xrmApp.Entity.SetValue("actualclosedate", DateTime.Today.AddMonths(1), "MM/dd/yyyy");

xrmApp.Entity.SetValue("new_actualclosedatetime", DateTime.Today.AddMonths(1), "MM/dd/yyyy", "hh:mm tt");

Warm Regards,
Tyler
