I believe you are remembering things backwards. The graphic calendar date picker is being gradually replaced with a newer one, tab by tab. But the version with the X is the new version. The X appears when you scroll over the calendar icon. The old version had no X. The old version also had the “Today” option. The new version does not.
Interesting. This might be operating-system dependent. Here is a screen shot of the old calendar date picker on a Mac. Notice there is no X after clicking on the date:
Interesting.
Windows 10
On version 21.2.51 using manager desktop (no webview2) I get the X
Using server version 21.2.51 (127.0.0.1:8080) I don’t get it?
Unfortunately, this is an area that when Manager makes process changes a user has to modify their approach. It is disappointing to see a changed process which impacts upon efficiency.
An alternate would be to highlight the entire date and use the delete key.
But to ask, why do you want to delete the date, when you can use the date picker to select a new date.
Update 21.3.85 implemented the new calendar in Purchase Invoice. Now I can use the “X” to erase the date. All that remains is to implement the change in the “Sales Invoice” module. Sales invoice does not yet contain the “X” to erase the date.
I thank you very much for the changes implemented @Lubos
If you could implement the new calendar in the “Receipts & Payments” module it would be great.
