```moment(someDate).format("DD/MM/YYYY")```
Logs out in the correct format, not sure why it's not accepting it.

Do I have to wrap format.format around it?

Fixed it by using format.parse:

```format.parse({
    type: format.Type.DATE,
    value: moment(ceaseDate).format("DD/MM/YYYY").toString()
})```
Not sure why format.format didn't like it - considering moment returns an object - but using toString() and .parse seemed to do the trick.

The suitescript probably could not convert the object to something usable by the parser. The object was not compatible with suitescript

basic rule of date fields, use a Date with setValue, use a string with setText
