Civimember Status end dates

Somewhere along the way it appears that when creating a membership status the end date is now required.  This means that you can no longer create an "expired" membership status.

Is this just a bug or was there some coherent planning behind the change?

I'm running 1.7.9379 and seem to get the expected behavior (Add Membership, set the type and join date, and the end date is generated automatically). I know that when using the API, I must provide all the dates in question.

Can you be more specific about what version you're using and what steps you are taking?
Thanks!

Dave - I think this is a bug (given that the default Status Rule for Expired doesn't "save" on update w/o the error). I'll post an issue and look at how/why this behavior was changed.

syoumans: I'm talking about the status rules, not the entering of a membership for a contact.

Dave Greenberg: thanks.  Until it gets fixed I can just manually create the entry in the table.

Dave - this is fixed for 1.8 : http://issues.civicrm.org/jira/browse/CRM-1895
The change is quite trivial if you want to apply to your install.
Code: [Select]
CRM/Member/MembershipStatus.php:
Was...
        $this->add('select', 'end_event', ts('End Event'), CRM_Core_SelectValues::eventDate( ), true );
Now...
        $this->add('select', 'end_event', ts('End Event'), CRM_Core_SelectValues::eventDate( ), false );
