How to Greyed Out past dates for a Date type variable

[Dan33]

Hi All,

Can anyone please help to grey out past dates for Date type variable on Portal and Classic view.

 I don't want to change my variable into widget. Is there any other way to do it? 

I am doing validation on it but i need it to be greyed out.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Dan,

Currently there is no attribute for the date variable to make the past dates read-only or greyed out. Though this a good enhancement that can be considered. In HTML for an input type="date" when we provide the min attribute to todays date or whichever date we want, the dates before the mentioned date will be greyed out. 

For now i would suggest you to put a validation on that field that if someone selects a date which is in past it should give them a pop up or an alert saying "Past dates cannot be selected"  and clear the field value which will again make it mandatory for user to fill.

Hope this helps.

i did it. I was able to add error message but I am looking some other solution for that. I think there a possible way in variable field type UI MACRO. But I don't wanna create the widget now as there are so many field depending on this Date field. I don't want to change other scripts for this. So i was looking for a possible way.
