Not only 'year built', but the exact 'month built' is important information in view of class renewal cycles.

Considering it is just for master data records, utilising the User-Defined fields functionality could help with this without any development. You could also make it a drop down to ensure consistency.

Hi Josh,
We are using User-Defined fields extensively and feel that this particular bit of information (month) is so closely related to the existing data field (year built), both need to be read together, that it does not make sense to split this information in 2 separate fields on separate locations in the record of a vessel.
In terms of development, we would assume that this is rather limited as it could just be a simple alteration to the definition of the existing field.
Hence our request
