Date Validation for a Custom Field

Currently RT Custom fields offer Mandatory, Digits, Year

I would like to create a CF which require date validation and always
ensures formatting (mm/dd/yyyy)

Is this something that must be done at the Perl level or can it be
done via online RT config CF management?

TIA

You can do formatting, but not validation without some extended/experimental
RE features resulting in a hairy expression.

You can also patch to have support for Date Customfields (with working
search like other RT date fields):

Hi Emmanuel,
just saw this patch is against 3.8.6, does this mean it is included in
3.8.7/8?

3.8.7, no

3.8.8, not yet (@BPS, many users want it, anyone to review it?)

Last I recall, ruslan had some concerns about … searching, maybe?
