# Capturing Pass Expiry Dates

If you wish to capture and store the Expiry Dates of individuals' passes, then *infoodle* has a few options:

**1. Manage it yourself.** This can be done using a custom field you create and simply manage it like any other custom field in respect to permissions and reporting. Ensure it is a date field. You may be capturing other data too.

**2. Manage it yourself but make available to other *infoodle* features.** To ensure *infoodle* can use your expiry date, you need to inform *infoodle* that you are using it. Do this on the **Administration** -> **Covid Features** screen. Enable the COVID features and select the field from the drop down available. You will still need a custom field but it will need to be a date field and associated with an individual.

**3. Allow users to update it themselves.** We’ve incorporated the ability for users to scan their own pass. [**Click here for more information on this.**](/v1/docs/scanning-my-vaccine-pass)

This means users can scan their own valid pass and *infoodle* will update the field you specified.

Because the scan includes their date of birth, you can choose to capture and update this data too.

You can also enable a logged in person to update their family members. This means a parent can update their children's details when they don't have a login. Each person will need to present their own pass, of course.
