**Business Intelligence now has a dedicated date field type**

Custom properties in Business Intelligence have always supported text  
and numeric values. v5.1 adds a third: date.

Store structured date values — engagement start dates, remediation  
deadlines, retest windows — as first-class BI properties. They show up  
in your dashboards, filter properly, and track across projects just  
like your other custom fields.

If you’ve been storing dates as text fields, now is a great time to  
migrate them over and take advantage of proper date filtering.
