We want to record a Year value on a record in SugarCRM, but we don’t have a day and month to do with it, you can’t use a field that is of a ‘date’ type as that requires a full date (year, month, day).

You can use an Integer field type tho. The downside is that it displays a thousands separator. i.e. it’ll show 2,014 instead of 2014.

To fix this, tick the Disable Format check box in Studio. This will remove the thousand separator.
