Allow clearing or deleting values in drop-down and date fields.
Currently, once a value has been selected in a drop-down field (pre-existing fields - not custom as you can enter a blank line) or entered in a date field on a client record, it cannot be cleared or removed. A value must always remain, even if it was chosen in error or is no longer relevant.
This creates issues where incorrect or outdated values remain attached to client records, making fields harder to maintain over time.
It would be very helpful to allow users to either:
-- reset a drop-down or date field back to blank, or
-- remove an existing value from a record
so that fields can be corrected or cleared when needed.
