Additional information

This is not a bug, but documented behaviour. The string you enter is interpreted as a moment.js format string, and a and l happen to be the placeholders for “am/pm” and “localized month numeral, day of month, year”, respectively (see the documentation). In order to “mask” your input from being interpreted as placeholders, you have to enclose it in square brackets, like so: [Journal]/YYYY/MM/YYYY-MM-DD

Hope that helps
