What format does a date filter need to be in Crystal 2008

I am using 01/01/2005 00:00:00 as the date format for a filter in Crystal but I am getting the following error:

Failed to retrieve data from the database.
Details ORA-12801:error signalled in parallel query server P122, instance gl03dm05:ewp11(1)
ORA-01861:literal does not match format string

Any ideas what the correct format should be?

Thanks!

Hi,

May I ask how you define the date filter? Did you use the parameter then place it under record filter or directly place date under record filter.

Thanks

If using a parameter there are 2 options: date and datetime. Make sure you select the right one.

The date format is yyyy-mm-dd and the datetime format is yyyy-mm-dd hh:mm:ss
