Unexpected behaviour when typing date changes

With recurring monthly purchase invoices, I normally clone the previous invoice then edit the date manually, by selecting the month number and typing in the new number. Let’s say the cloned date is ‘10/05/2021’. We want to change the month from May to June, so we double click the the ‘05’ and type ‘6’. But as soon as we hit tab, return or click somewhere else, it reverts to ‘05’. It forces you to type in that leading zero to make it work. Seems like a very basic coding issue, if it can’t convert the string ‘6’ to the number 6!

Hi
Agree. Seems that there was a change recently (Ver 21.9.18) as I experience the same in all date fields I use. 1/6/21 used to translate to 01/06/2021 but now it has to be exact or it is erased. Using the date picker for long ago transactions is very tedious. Could the date recognition be reinstated?

Fixed in the latest version (21.9.39). You can now enter the date manually without leading zeroes.
