Sorry if it has been asked, I can't seem to find it. But I have an "Age" field in contacts that I need to fill in, however since age is a function of current date minus birth date, how should I implement this field?
thanks!
How to implement an "Age" field?
Hi,
You can setup a field "Age" type "calculated" will take the birthday date and today's date and calculate the difference and format in years/months.

Thanks for the links!
I think age type fields are pretty useful, would they make it into the next build of EPESI?
I agree that this is a useful type of field, but this is the first time since EPESI was released in 2007 that anyone requested it 
I think we can add this type of a calculated field which will return the date/time difference in the format specified in user's preferences.
Hi Jasiek,
Since EPESI 1.5 has just been released, are there any plans to patch in age type fields in the near future? Was kinda wondering if I need to spend the time trying to get calculated fields working by writing new code. If the new age type fields were be become standard, that would solve a lot of my (age, number of years in use) type problems.
Thanks!
