Module name

This module was written to extend the functionality of Odoo to support setting a birthdate using a date format and allow you to benefit of a clearer API and UI.

Installation

To install this module, you need to:

• Ensure that the current contents of the birthdate field in the res.partner model in your database are empty or in a format easily readable by the python function strptime in case you want this module to automatically convert those to the new format.
• Install the OCA repository partner-contact.
• Update your modules list.
• Search and install this module.

Configuration

No configuration is needed.

Usage

To use this module, you need to:

• Edit or create a partner.
• Ensure it is not a company.
• Go to the Personal Information sheet.
• Set the birthdate there.

Known issues / Roadmap

• If you have data in your res.partner records' birthdate field that cannot be converted to date by Pyhton's strptime function, those records will have an empty birthdate_date after install.
