This widget allows users to quickly enter dates.
The user can use shorter date formats to quickly input dates. The sequence of the months and days is determined on the date format of the projects.
The year will be determined based on the setting of the "Current Year" boolean. By default the "Current Year" is set to true and the missing year information will be interpreted as the current year. When the "Current Year" is set to false the date will be interpreted as the current or next possible date.
The date is considered to be in the current century.
There is no information missing.
All example dates are in the DD/MM/YYYY format.
| System Date | Input | CurrentYear | Output |

| 27/03/2016 | 26032021 | not applicable | 26/03/2021 |
Any seperators used in the input are ignored. The output date is formatted with the format of the project. Validation errors are shown when the input contains letters or when the input can not result in a valid date (e.g. 29/02/2001).
