SOTA Import: Unexpected date format found

I would like to import SOTA csv information (exported from
www.sotadata.org.uk). Following the user manual I get an error "Unexpected date format found". I have tried several combinations with the options in the import-window without success.
Attached is the original export csv file from sotadata.
Hope You could help

(System is running in Switzerland)

Log4OM version number please - see help/About
Without that I cannot try to emulate your issue as it could be something already fixed!

Do the QSO's exist in your Log4OM logbook?

Its a merge routine that updates the existing QSO's with the data from SOTA, its not a way of adding QSO's to your log.
I know SOTA now provide an ADIF upload feature, do they provide an ADIF download? If so download the ADIF and import it from the Log4OM file/Import ADIF menu
