Managing dates is a key part of an adviser’s daily workflow in Trail — from client birthdays to review dates. To make this faster and easier, Trail now supports a standardised Date of Birth (DOB) input experience across the adviser interface.


🧭 Where This Applies

Trail has:

  • Identified all Date of Birth fields in the adviser UI

  • Replaced them with one standardised DOB input component

  • Ensured the same behaviour and experience everywhere you enter a DOB


📝 How to Enter a Date of Birth (Step-by-Step)

  1. Go to any client profile or form that contains a Date of Birth field.

  2. Click on the Date of Birth field.

  3. Choose one of the following:

    • Option A: Type the date directly using your keyboard

    • Option B: Click the calendar icon and select the date

  4. Save your changes as usual.

    Option A: Type the date directly using your keyboard
