Wrong error message for charge command.

[Jacky142857]

Steps to reproduce: charge 7 m/13-2022 c/100

Expected result: Notify me that the month I have entered is invalid/out of bounds.

Actual result: A formatting error is thrown, which shouldn't be the case since 13-2022 follows the format 'MM-yyyy'. Invalid command format! Charge date should be formatted as MM-yyyy!

Error message for out of range month in 'charge' is inaccurate

If I enter a month out of range, e.g:

The resulting message is:

Which is slightly inaccurate because the format is as specified.

Their Response to the 'Original' Bug

[This is the team's response to the above 'original' bug]

Thank you for your review. We understand that the error message might be slightly unclear. However, the resulting message tells the user to input a month and a year, where MM can be anything from 01 to 12 only. Additionally, the user should be able to understand that they have keyed in a wrong input as 13 is an invalid month.

:question: Issue response

Team chose [response.Rejected]

• [x] I disagree

Reason for disagreement: The formatting error message will make user think they are not in the right format of keying in the command, where in fact they keyed in an invalid command. An invalid entry message should be shown to the user.

Here is another similar situation in your application where an invalid entry message is thrown rather than a simple formatting error. When using the app command with an invalid month, or date, the error in the second picture is shown, suggesting that the date is an invalid entry, rather than a simple formatting error.
