Description Daniel Orrego univentionstaff 2015-12-21 18:40:30 CET
(I'm cloning this bug to get a fix for this issue in UCS 3.2)

Once a date field is set (any date field, birthday, expiry date, etc.), one is not able to unset it again.

This is happening to us in UCS 3.2 when trying to unset a date field in UMC.

To fix this also for the birthdate None must also be allowed by the "simple" syntax class:
r66556 | Bug #40325: allow None to be passed to the 'simple' syntax class.
