Hi,
   In CustomerRegistration form,i've changed my date of birth field as non-mandatory(just removed required value for field in validation.xml)and displayed.I've also changed my dob field value NOTNULL as null in my database.

          Now if i enter all d values in form except my dob field...it shows an exception message as follows



Exception Name = com.konakart.app.KKException
Exception Message = The Date parameter called birthDate must be given a value. It cannot be set to null.

Hi Karthi,

The way to do this is to disable it in the admin app under Configuration >> Customer Details and not touch anything else.

Hi,

The engine call requires a value for the date so you must give it a default value if the user decides not to set it.
