Summary

0025700: It would be nice to define specific field format for manual Attributes

Description

Business Example:

client needs to capture several attributes related to a product like:
1. Batch/Lot Num
2. Expiry Date
3. Manufacturing Date
4. Color, etc

For Batch/Lot Num and Expiry date, it is shown by default when you select Lot,
Expiration Date option in Attribute Set.

For Manufacturing date, color you need to define additional attributes and assign those to the Attribute Set.
As observed, additional attributes are created as free text field with 40 characters. (another option is a 'closed' list)

The user can enter any format for Manufacturing Date...which
becomes difficult to track and also for analysis purpose.
