The table in question has a field: Field('Paiddate', 'date', requires = [IS_EMPTY_OR(IS_DATE()), IS_EMPTY_OR(IS_MEMBERSHIP_YEAR_END())]),
The custom validator is: class IS_MEMBERSHIP_YEAR_END(object): def __init__(self, error_message='Not a membership year end'): self.error_message = error_message def __call__(self, value): yearend = datetime.date(2018,9,30) if value.month==yearend.month and value.day==yearend.day: return (value, None) return (value, self.error_message) This works in 2.17.2 I updated my test environment to 2.18.4 and it fails.
