Do we need to record the complete date when using a date field? This is not very good! If we do some registrations in a date field "today", so should the system be able to propose the total date in relation to the current date. For example, the following entries would lead to this date: "14" -> 14.06.2013 "1405" -> 14.05.2013 "140512" -> 14.05.2012 "14052011" -> 14.05.2011 Have to follow the users or systems international setting.
