How to add an expiration date to a skill
You can add expiration dates to certain skills if you want specific skills to turn inactive after a certain amount of time.
This functionality is for example beneficial for skills with an expiring certificate (eg. First-Aid training, COVID vaccinations etc. pp).
Expiration dates for skills are not added inside the Skills menu, they are added inside the Users -> Skills tab.
