The DateFormatter doesn't recognise <date>T<time>Z format for example which is valid as of ISO 8601. Removing the ending Z is a workaround but it would be nice if the transformer accepts any valid ISO date/time as web services tend to produce all spectrum of valid ISO date/time strings.

This functionality will be implemented in FME 2017.1. The new DateTimeFormatter will be able to autodetect <date>T<time>Z format. The user can also type in the input format string as %Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S%z.
