20230701

20230701 is a numeric date string in the YYYYMMDD format. It denotes the first day of July in the year 2023 in the Gregorian calendar.

The same sequence without separators is commonly used in data systems, file naming, and archival processes because its fixed length and lexicographic order align with chronological ordering.

In practice, 20230701 is used as a timestamp suffix or key in databases and logs, and in file names such as backup_20230701.tar.gz or report_20230701.csv to enable date-based sorting.

The format is comparable to ISO 8601 but lacks separators and time information. It is unambiguous for the Gregorian date but provides no time zone or time of day.

When time data is needed, it is often appended in extended forms (for example 20230701T123000Z). Related concepts include the YYYYMMDD representation and ISO 8601.
