I found this piece of information and got it to work correctly. The data given to me was in string format so I needed to parse the string using kendo.parseDate
before formatting it with kendo.toString
.
columns: [
{
field: "FirstName",
title: "FIRST NAME"
},
{
field: "LastName",
title: "LAST NAME"
},
{
field: "DateOfBirth",
title: "DATE OF BIRTH",
template: "#= kendo.toString(kendo.parseDate(DateOfBirth, 'yyyy-MM-dd'), 'MM/dd/yyyy') #"
},
...
