When using the variable &$PHYS_DATE_format# as a default value in a PromptSet with a date type element, you must use the following format to ensure that the date can be interpreted correctly by the Automation Engine.

1. Define a test PromptSet with a default value today (2016-10-13) with a different variable date format such as &$PHYS_DATE_ DD_MM_YYYY_d#.
2. Execute the job with the PromptSet and click OK without changing the input mask.
3. The PromptSet will be saved as ‘0013-00-16’.

Cause type:
By design
Root Cause: To use a default value for a date PromptSet-element, you have to use the format YYYY-MM-DD. You can see that also in the prompset designer, before you enter a value. The value should be set to use &$PHYS_DATE_YYYY_MM_DD_d#.
