[IUG] Self Registration Field Modification

["Abramson, Alicia" <AAbramson at ci dot berkeley dot ca dot us>]

We are implementing self registration soon, and want to ask our users
for their birth year only, not their full birth date.  We want to do
this as a way to keep our patron types updated on an annual basis, but
also don't want to collect unnecessary private information from our
patrons.

 

My question is how to handle putting that data into Innovative, since
Innovative is expecting mmddyyyy.  Ideally there would be a way for us
to tack on 0101 to yyyy to get 0101yyyy which is then sent to III.  


Thanks,
