Nullable date that is registered as eloquent carbon date

I have added

 protected $dates = ['schedule_date'];

at my model, but sometime it may be null, in case of null now i am getting error while attempting to update the row.

(1/1) InvalidArgumentException
Data missing

Any help is highly appreciated. Thanks

Ooops, sorry solved. my fault::

instead of writing this logic

 $item->schedule_date = $request->schedule_date ? Carbon::createFromFormat('m-d-Y', $request->schedule_date)->format('Y-m-d') : null;

mistakenly I have written


 $item->schedule_date = $item->schedule_date ? Carbon::createFromFormat('m-d-Y', $request->schedule_date)->format('Y-m-d') : null;
