Problem: Incoming messages with a two-digit year representation do not convert to the proper century. An incoming date of 021804 would be translated as 1904-02-18.
Workaround: Either use 4-digit representations for the year or include the following information in your edl.
actions:
integer myyear = two_digit_year.year()
if (myyear <= 1950)
{ myyear = myyear + 100 }
two_digit_year = myyear.toString() + "-" + two_digit_year.toStringFormatted("%m-%d")
Change the pivot year (myyear <= 1950) to a year that will be considered the pivot point between the 20th and 21st century. The logic behind it is that any two digit year below or equal to 1950 (00-50) will be recognized as in the 21st century (2000-2050). Any above (51-99) are in the 20th (1951-1999).
