Cause
MM/dd/yy HH:mm a
If the accountExpires attribute is in any other date format, AFX will fail.
Resolution
Ensure that the accountExpires date format mapped in the Active Directory connector definition is in the required date format for both the Update an Account and Create an Account connector capabilities.The required date format is MM/dd/yy HH:mm a. For example, when defining a date such as 'July 4, 2019', enter the value as '07/04/19 00:00 AM'.
