Date

A Date field is to capture and manage date-related values. e.g., an HR management system uses a Date field to store the "Date of Joining" for employees. The Date field is used to store date values and has four sub-categories:

Date Field Categories

• Date: Stores a single date, such as date of birth or date of joining. e.g., such as January 1, 1990.

• Time: Stores only time values, like departure time or arrival time. e.g., 9:00 AM.

• Date and Time: Stores both date and time values, such as departure date and time or arrival date and time. e.g., such as December 31, 2023, 11:59 PM.

• Date Range: It allows CDs to select dates for a specific range (from a date and to date). e.g., like January 1, 2023, to December 31, 2023, for an academic year. Know more about Date Range Calendar.
