Alfresco uses YUI datepicker control (API: calendar YAHOO.widget.Calendar (YUI Library) ).

In YUI datepicker control, if you want to disabled past date (ex. dates before some date), you need to set 'mindate' property.

You can find Alfresco usage of YUI date picker component in \tomcat\webapps\share\components\form\date-picker.js file. Somehow I could not find usage if 'mindate' in this js file. just for trail purpose, I simple set this property in 'DatePicker_onReady()' function as follow,

.....

....

this.widgets.calendar.cfg.setProperty("pagedate", page);
this.widgets.calendar.cfg.setProperty("selected", selected);
this.widgets.calendar.cfg.setProperty("mindate", "01/01/2018");

...

and I could disabled dates before "01/01/2017".

Since you can not set this property in existing date picker control in Alfresco, I think you can consider to extend this component and set 'mindate' property

hope this would be helpful

just for testing, rename it to date-picker.min.js.txt . this is for quick hack may not be good practice to follow always.
