Excel Facts

Format cells as date
Select range and press Ctrl+Shift+3 to format cells as date. (Shift 3 is the # sign which sort of looks like a small calendar).
provide date in correct format.
A date format is just that, a format!

To be valid, dates need to be entered in either a recognised format for your regional settings, or a valid international format. Anything other than that you simply do with cell formatting.
You could use data validation to check that the dates fall within a specified period if needed. https://www.contextures.com/exceldatavalidationdates.html
