set a expiry alert - how is this supposed to work?
I added a new Software License and one of the fields is Purchase Date and under that is an option to Set expiry alert. Whenever I attempt to enter a date one year in the future it's entered as a date in the past and then I get an alert that the license is expired. I think this is a bug? I imagine all expirations for newly entered items are in the future.... right?
Right, I guess it threw me off because it was a pre-populated field "purchase date" with an option underneath to set an expiration date. Once I got over the engineering quirk I just created a new date field called "renew date", entered a time in the future... 6/16/2026, then added an alert for that on the same date. I like the idea I guess I am trying to understand how it was meant to be implemented. It was counterintuitive initially.
