            Bug ID: 497608
           Summary: Date format other than %m/%d/%y in configuration
                    causes errors when changing date in transactions
    Classification: Applications
           Product: kmymoney
           Version: 5.1.3
          Platform: Fedora RPMs
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: ux-ui
          Assignee: kmymoney-devel at kde.org
          Reporter: alexia at duck.com
  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY
When adding a transaction or editing one under "Ledgers," typing in the date
will cause an error if the date format in "Online Quotes" for KMyMoney is
different than %m/%d/%y

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Change the date format to %d.%m.%y  or   %d/%m/%y
2. Add a new transaction to the ledger, or edit an existing one
3. Type in a number for the day, month, or year in the "Date" field

OBSERVED RESULT
The text turns red and you can no longer save the entry, even if you enter a
correct date (either d/m/y or m/d/y). This happens also if you use the date
picker on the right.

However, if the date in the OS is some day in December (or the current month;
unsure) greater than 12, changing the date to 12/n/24 where n is between 13 and
31 is permitted and the entry can be saved.

EXPECTED RESULT
The text does not turn red and you can save the entry if you input a correct
date.
Ideally you should be able to enter the date in the date format specified in
the settings (but it'd be good enough if a legal m/d/y date worked)

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
(available in the Info Center app, or by running `kinfo` in a terminal window)
Linux/KDE Plasma: Fedora Linux 40
KDE Plasma Version: 6.2.4
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.8.0
Qt Version: 6.7.2

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
This is not because of the date during which the account was opened. The
account in question where the transactions were being edited had a much earlier
opening date
