WPA needs to have the date formatted in a globally used format to avoid confusion to users and suppliers.

 

For example:  XX-Jan-XXXX

I agree.  In some cases the format may be configurable, but it seems like that's not true in all cases.

Would the ISO and FDA global format make more sense?

YYYY-MM-DD

I could live with that.  Probably makes more sense as 'Jan' is not the first month for countries that do not use English as their official language.
