Capturing Date in Data elements and Date Variable in Jasper Reports

Dear all,

I have a data element that is supposed to hold a date. For example, I collect monthly data. I want to have a data element that will contain the date when a payment was made for the collected data. You can collect data for January 2015, but make payment for this data on 3 March 2015. So I want to capture the 3 March 2015 as a data element.

I have created report which displays the data period and the day payment was made. However, my date column can not display. My data element is of type date. Is there a special way of handling date elements of date type in reports??

Is there a special way of handling data elements of date type in reports??
