You can remove the enddate in subscription edit and that removes it from the record. But if you display the subscription and there is no enddate present it will calculate when the subscription expires and display that as end date.

Strikes me that theres a bit on inconsistency in field naming and function here (and elsewhere in serials) which is not at all helpful to the user.

Colin,

How do you remove it.  On the left column there is an end date listed and I can't remove it. On the right column there is an end date and when I delete that it does save, but the other end date remains and I can't do any receiving on the subscription. I'll do a video for you if you need.

left side - no way to remove the date and hit save

Created attachment 6258 [details]
right side - i can delete

after saving the other date on the left remains and causes me to be unable to receive issues.

If I click the date on the leftside date although it doesnt look editable and backspace through it, I can erase the date and save removes enddate.

OOO, thanks for the tip!  We should make it more obvious :)

Details on patch:

Gives a border to the dates on this page to make them obviously editable.

I suggest that this could be an issue which could be changed across the rest of Koha.

[SIGNED-OFF] Fix to make date obviously editable - bug 7193

Signed-off-by: Katrin Fischer <Katrin.Fischer.83@web.de>
Patch changes all date fields on subscription entry to be
obvious input fields. This makes it more obvious that you
can enter dates manually and is more consistent with how
we handle dates in other places.

Simple template-only change to make the date editing look like it is (that is, possible!)

Passed QA

patch pushed, please test

QA comment:
the patch also remove a few inline styling which should not be here (style="border-width: 0px;)
