Replace relative dates by real dates in your SAP Fiori Overview Page

By default, when you create an Overview Page, the system will adapt all of your date fields and expose the information as a relative date, like the example below:

	"sap.ovp": {
		"globalFilterModel": "...",
		"globalFilterEntityType": "...",
		"showDateInRelativeFormat": false,
		"cards": {
			...
		}
	}

The attribute showDateInRelativeFormat is verified in a generic card code inside the sap.ovp library, this means that all card layouts will be affected by this configuration.

This is the final result:
