UK legislation Challenge 25

Looks like it is not interpreting the DOB as a Date, something like Excel sometimes does unless you explicitly set the cell format type.

Check the regional settings on the computer for Date format being used and change it to match your Dev system if necessary.

Show the Report again.

Mabe try something like:

FD([TTD.Date of Birth],'dd MM yyyy')

That ^ might not be completely correct, but you get the idea.

Instead of doing that in the Field selection list, you might alternatively need to set the formatting in the report tag after the last colon such as:

:{0}|{1}|{3}|{4}|FD({5})

Q’s right thats the tag you need in the report, theres a specific tag for ticket tag date which is TTD. So use that instead, so my ticket tag is called Date of Birth so the report format for it is:

TTD.Date of Birth

I didnt need all the extra formatting around it i assume you just used TT. so just replace that with TTD. and it should work fine

yup yup, will edit the upload. Thanks guys

so, from reading below this is actually a Scottish law and not UK Law?

WHY CHALLENGE 25?

BACKGROUND

The ability to determine the age of young people has become increasingly difficult over the years. This has led to problems for both retailers and young people when trying to purchase and sell age related goods.

In October 2011, the Licensing (Scotland) Act 2005 was amended by the introduction of a new mandatory condition for all premises licences and occasional licences. This provides that there must be an age verification policy in relation to the sale of alcohol on the premises. The section has set a minimum age of 25 years for the policy where it appears to the person selling the alcohol that the customer may be under the age of 25 years.

Only the production of proof of age documents specified by law will satisfy the purpose of the age verification policy. With effect from 1st October 2013, these are:

(i) A passport
(ii) A European Union photocard driving licence
(iii) A Ministry of Defence Form 90 (Defence Identity Card)
(iv) A photographic identity card bearing the national Proof of Age
Standards Scheme (PASS) hologram
(v) A national identity card issued by a European Union member state (other than the United Kingdom), Norway, Iceland, Liechtenstein or Switzerland, or
(vi) A Biometric Immigration Document.

It is for each business to decide which of these approved forms of identification it will accept in terms of the age verification policy. They need not all be accepted. It would be very prudent to exclude any type of document with which staff are not wholly familiar. Only the forms of identification acceptable to the business should be included in any declaration form signed by staff serving alcohol. Examples of the forms of proof of age are available from http://prado.consilium.europa.eu/EN/homeIndex.html and are contained in http://www.scotland.gov.uk/Resource/0038/00389871.pdf.

Proposing the introduction of Challenge 25 in the Scottish Parliament the Scottish Government’s Deputy First Minister, Nicola Sturgeon MSP, commented: “Age verification policies such as challenge 25 can help to empower staff to challenge customers where there is doubt about their age and to ensure that customers are more aware that they are likely to be asked to show proof of age. That can help to avoid confrontation…” [The Scottish Parliament, 22nd September 2010]

Agree, and was quite annoyed at the time the officer giving me false information. However it is still classed as “Good Practise” in the UK so we are continuing to do it anyway.
