Due date inconsistency when I try to set a date after 20 years from now

For one of my issues, when I try to set up a due date as 12th Feb 2054 using the inbuilt Jira calendar, I was able to select the date in the calendar. However, when I click outside to save my changes, the year automatically changes from 2054 to 1954.

I did some trial and error to understand the breaking point, and I noticed if the year that I select is below 20 from today, the year section saves correctly. If it is more than 20, the first 2 digits in the year parameter automatically changes from "20" to "19".

Can someone please suggest me what's causing this, and how can I fix this issue?

Appreciate your time for reading this!

Hey @Baskar Palanisamy

Welcome to Atlassian Community!

Strange behaviour, but I am able to replicate this. Anything up to 31st Dec 2044 works fine. 1st Jan 2045 onwards goes back to 1900s.

Might be a limitation, I'll try to find some documentation on this or check internally to get more insights into this behaviour.

You may also report this to our support team via a support ticket.

Thanks!

Hi @Baskar Palanisamy -- Welcome to the Atlassian Community!

Adding to the answer from @Karan Sachdev ...

That is a known problem, and here is the defect for it, which has timed-out and been closed: https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JRACLOUD-82550

 

Kind regards,
Bill
