[ILL-L] need before date??

[Nelson, Timothy Peter]

I noticed this once with some of our requests and the same thing may be
happening to you.

A patron had requested several items via the WorldCat/Firstsearch
interface and had filled in the "need by" date.  OCLC expects the
yyyy-mm-dd format for dates, and the patron didn't enter it that way, so
I got an error in WRS when I tried to process the requests.

Hope this helps.

Subject: [ILL-L] need before date??

Hello all,
Has anyone noticed this problem today? Every time I try to produce a
request, the "need before date" changes to 20200731. Which then shows as
an error and I have to manually enter the date.
Is it just me??
