Julian/Gregorian

Do you see something abnormal in following image?



Yes …….what’s this?
And same thing you will see on some other ERP solutions / software once you select September 1752.

Answer:

The calendar snippet shows that there are no days between October 4 and October 15. This discontinuity is called the “cutover”.

What is Cutover?

“This is a hybrid Julian/Gregorian calendar with a cutover on October 4/15 1582.” Any dates before a cutover are Julian, any dates during a cutover are nonexistent, and any dates after a cutover are Gregorian.
