Error description
When attempting to submit a new version of an existing asset via RSA that contains customised date attributes, the user is able to update the field with a new date value, but is unable to clear the field to remove it's contents. For example, our Topology asset has a customised 'Requested Deployment Date' field which is used to determine when to schedule the related Build Forge project. When a designer is required to submit a new version of the topology for the next deployment, they should set this field to blank as this field will be populated at a later stage in the asset lifecycle, but currently the field cannot be cleared, it can only be set to another date. Steps to reproduce: 1. Create a new asset attribute in RAM with a 'Date' type 2. Create a new asset type in RAM and add the new date attribute 3. Submit a new version of the new asset type in RAM, setting a value for the new date attribute. 4. Switch to RSA, search for the new asset and import it into a test project. The asset should appear in your asset explorer view, and the asset details should be displayed. 5. In the asset details window, select 'Edit Version-?Create new version', and enter a new version number. 6. Attempt to set the new date attribute to blank.
