When going to update a date field (pay effective date for instance), you cannot type in the date. It immediately pops up the calendar, and you have to search for the date month by month. We should have the ability to type in the date as well as use the calendar. Sometimes the date changes can be a few years apart, and scrolling month by month is not efficient.
The Product Team investigated this and the ability to type into Date fields is allowed. Please upgrade to the latest version of Sage HRMS and if you see this to not be the case, let us know exactly which field on which screen you are referring to and we will investigate further.
