    Under start date, can we please have the option to select:

    • Immediate
    • 1 week
    • 2 weeks
    • 3 weeks
    • 4 weeks; or
    • Select Start date (allows us to select specific start date)

    :doh: :sigh:

      Pfft wait till they ask you to do the weeks to 3 then months to 3 then quarters to 4 and then years in the same control and still want to specify a specific date.

          What they're saying is, "I want to easily be able to select now, in 1, 2, 3 or 4 weeks, or a specific date."  Doesn't seem like an unreasonable request to me.  Many apps offer similar functionality. /ravi

            So ... a drop down, or set of radio buttons (drop down allows for more flexibility in future) and a tiny bit of code. What's the problem? Sounds like a very nice little feature that is simple to implement and makes the user's life a load easier ...

                  Developers who refuse to understand what makes life easier for their users worry me. It is a perfectly acceptable request, which obviously means "Next Monday", "the Monday after that", etc, and I, at least, can see how that would have value to users. I suggest that you just do it.
