Scamming/Report Dates - Buggy

[Cleora]

So, is it just me or does anyone else find when you try to put in a scam report date or something of the sort, that it glitches out and can easily glitch back.

My question is why does it have to be specific like that? Wouldn't it be enough to have a blank space and to be able to type in 12/14/2019? Rather then having to scroll through months, weeks, days and to have it glitch back sometimes? Recently I had to make a SR (Scam report) and it bugged out 5-6 times so I just picked a random date and explained that the date chosen in the scam report date question was wrong. Stating the actual date following why I didn't chose the correct date in the first place.

My suggestion. Small change, remove the calendar and replace it with a empty fill out box people can use a lot easier without having to worry about it glitching out. Not sure if it's an actual bug, but I'm going to call it so.

Make this change for the account migration dates as well.

Possibly not a standard single text-box...

01/02/03
Is it the 2nd of January 2003 or
Is it the 1st of February 2003 or
Is it the 3rd of February 2001

Though sure, 3 text boxes right up next to each other.

Just name something universal. But year should be on the right imo. Or just have the user able to customize their own time preferences.

DD = Day
MM = Month
YY = Year

Date of the scam report: DD:14 MM:12 YY:2019

Maybe something like this

Replacing the box with a text box would result in people saying something far less precise than what we'd like, such as "Monday last week" or "a few days ago".

Introducing a text box like DD/MM/YY would require custom development for something so minor. If you're having problems with the actual date picker then that's likely from a horribly out of date browser you're using. A bit of difficulty with selecting the date is the most suitable option in my opinion, especially with our migration to XF2 coming up.

I'll move this to the bug report archive, thank you
