An unusual problem has occurred for a small multinational company: People are getting
confused about dates in internal memos, purchase orders, and email. When the companys
database was originally designed, the designer was not aware that the format for dates in Canada
and Mexico was different from the format used in the United States. For example, in Canada and
Mexico, the notation 7/1/19 indicates January 7, 2019, whereas in the United States the same
notation indicates July 1, 2019. Although it seems like a small point, the date confusion has
resulted in several order cancellations. How would you fix this issue in the database?
