If your input data is of a different format than the default format in the Order-to-Cash Discovery Accelerator, you can edit the format settings for all the input attributes of that type in the Edit Datasource Attribute dialog in the Order-to-Cash Discovery Accelerator to match the format of your input data. See the illustration below for an example.
