life stage field

Submitted by JonathanWallace on

Has anyone else had an issue with the life stage field when entering records?  On numerous occasions I have entered the data for a record and then when attempting to save the record got a message that some required fields have not been filled in and, invariably, it is the life stage field.  At first I assumed I had overlooked filling in this field but as time has gone on I have made a conscious point of setting the life stage field and still ended up with having to go back and re-enter it as it has somehow reverted to blank.  It's only a minor irritation but what's going on?

Are you filling in the fields top to bottom? This has happened with me in the past and what was happening was if I selected the life cycle field first, but then changed a field above it, e.g. once I'd added the photo I went back and selected male or female, then that would blank out the life stage field. This hasn't happened to me when filling the fields out strictly one after the other down the page.
