[CESG] Request for GUI update re entering dates for IPCA related needs

[Barkley, Erik J (US 343J)]

Brian,

in order to get the ICPA updates corrected, there are multiple books for which I need to go into the project definition of the framework and provide updated estimated completion and actual completion dates. May I ask for a small usability improvement here?: if you click on the date field, and it does not matter which date field that is, you are presented with a GUI to navigate the calendar date rather than the ability to actually just enter the date directly. Okay if you are just entering one or 2 dates that is fine, but for updating many of the intermediate dates as a result of secretary issues last year, etc., This is unfortunately rather time-consuming. I honestly do not have time to fiddle with calendar entries for probably what amounts to about 50 of these things. I understand there may be date format issues, so would it be possible to just indicate in the date field something like YYYY/MM/DD or whatever the format that is needed is?

I realize you have many other things on your plate, but I think others might appreciate the ability to edit dates directly rather than four separate selections via the GUI to finally get to the date.    Thanks for looking into this.

Best regards,
-Erik

Subject: [EXTERNAL] [CESG] ICPA Update

Dear all,

Following our discussion at the Spring Meeting, could I ask you to update the ICPA entries relevant to your domain as we discussed?
The IOAG will have a large Face-to-Face meeting in the first week of July and they would like to review it there and add potentially missing items.

Please update all entries pertaining to your domain (as applicable) by 23 June latest.

Cheers,
Daniel
