Ability to configure DATE Spec Attribute data type in Work Order and crossover DATE fields from SR to Work Order

System where enhancement is requested: Maximo Asset Management version 7.6.1.2

Description of the enhancement:

It seems like Maximo 7.6.1.2 allows DATE fields in Spec attributes under SR Classification tab but doesn't seem to support DATE fields in Spec attributes under Work Order Classification tab. We're requesting that DATE field types are supported in Work Order Application.

Also, when a follow up work order is created from an SR that has Date spec attribute value on the SR is carried over to Work Order spec attribute just like how any ALN or Numeric spec attribute values come over.

This has a big impact to our inter-departmental service request. Each department's service request has different date parameters that are not relevant to other departments service requests. Hence we want to use Spec attribute date fields so it is configurable to each classification and sub-classification.
