Operational Range for Data: Generally January 1, 1948 ? 12/31/2075 but,
1/1/1993 - 12/31/2075 for certain online banking services.
Description of how the product accepts dates:
Money 97 accepts dates from January 1, 1948 through December 31, 2075. It uses a field oriented date structure with 16 bits to represent dates:
- 5 bits for Day (0-30).
- 4 bits for Month (0-11)
- 7 bit for Year (0-127)
These date values are zero-based, which means to represent all possible days in a month, 31 days, and starting with 0, you need 0-30. 5 bits are needed to represent 0-30 days. To represent all possible months in a year, 12 months, and starting with 0, you need 0-11. 4 bits are needed to represent 0-11 months. This means there are 7 bits left out of the 16 bit structure for years. 7 bits can represent a maximum of 127 years. Therefore, starting in 1948, the maximum range is 1948 + 127 = 2075.
- Four Digit Dates.
Money 97 accepts 4-digits dates in the following manner:
- 4-digit dates entered from 1/1/1948 to 12/31/2075 are treated as is
- 4-digit dates entered before 1/1/1948 are not accepted
- 4-digit dates entered after 12/31/2075 are not accepted
- Two Digit Dates.
Money 97 accepts 2-digit dates in the following manner:
If YY is 00-47, it is considered 20xx (2000-2047).
If YY is 48-99, it is considered 19xx (1948-1999).
- Online Banking Services.
OFC and Visa:
Money transmits date information to (and receives from) OFX, OFC and VISA using a 4-digit format (YYYYMMDD) within the operational date range for the Money product.
Checkfree/ISC/NPC:
Checkfree/ISC/NPC?s specification specifies the data format for communications with Checkfree. Checkfree uses six numeric digits to represent dates as YYMMDD.
Money and Checkfree exchange and translate 2-digit years (YY) during Online Banking connections using the following algorithm:
If YY = 00, it is considered 2000
If YY < 93, it is considered 20xx (e.g., 2092)
If YY >= 93, it is considered 19xx (e.g., 1993)
Applying this formula, the operational date range for Money in connection with online bill payment services with Checkfree is 1/1/1993 to 12/31/2075.
- Money Support for QIF Protocol.
Microsoft Money supports the QIF data transfer protocol developed by Intuit. Most versions of QIF have represented dates using a 2-digit year format. While the data stored in Money is Year 2000 compliant, Money needs to use a heuristic to determine the best 2-digit date to use when importing to or exporting from the QIF format. The rules of this heuristic are listed in the table below.
In some versions, QIF uses an apostrophe to denote specific date ranges (for example 1/31'01). In Quicken 98, it is used to indicate the years from 1900 ? 1949 and 2050 ? 2099. In versions prior to Quicken 98, in Quicken 99, and in Money v. 4.0 and up, an apostrophe is used to indicate the years from 2000 ? 2099. When Money97 was released, this latter interpretation of the apostrophe format was standard.
Presented below is a table describing how Money interprets QIF data ranges:
