Dates cannot be directly entered into a MIC. It is not supported.

Work arounds:

1) Enter the date into the inspection description of the MIC.

2) Enter the date as a number: i.e. 20171101 for today into a quantitative characteristic. If you want this as an actual date on a batch level characteristic, you can use a second date characteristic that uses a dependency (and FM), to take the entered number from the original characteristic and parse it out into a date format that becomes the value for the batch characteristic.

Thanks Craig for reply

i know this can't done directly but i ask for details for second solution u provide, how use Dependency and FM and which code could be used.

Not my solution. I didn't do it. You need to research dependencies and work with a programmer (for FM). The details of this is way beyond an internet forum. And understand that the date is not actually seen as a date in the inspection lot and is not directly reportable as a date from the inspection lot. Only the batch.
