May 11, 2020 at 8:03 comment added Felix Sanchez @Gortonington, Thank you, let me get this right :) so, data in my text-date form data extension would be processed and pushed into a true-date data extension in a Sales Cloud date format by a script activity. The script activity would also empty the entries in the text-date data extension to not revalidate and process those values again. The true-date data extension would be used as the entry source of a Journey, that would update the birthdate in Sales Cloud. Did I get everything right? Thank you

Apr 15, 2020 at 14:26 comment added Gortonington Yeah your only option is to have it be a text value. What I would do then is to have an automation with a script activity 'validate' it at scheduled intervals and then have it push the valid dates into a DE that is used to start the journey to update. This is far from an optimal solution, but should give you enough of an interim solution without too much duct tape and bubblegum.
Apr 15, 2020 at 12:00 comment added Naveen VM as long as am aware, date format is not yet supported in interactive email content. Hopefully it will get added in upcoming releases. You can make a Text field and add a place holder (dd/mm/yyyy) so that customer can enter into those formats as a workaround.
