SmartSuite’s new feature allows you to capture not just dates but also specific times within your forms, enhancing the precision and functionality of your data collection. This is particularly useful for scenarios such as scheduling event start times, setting appointment times, or any situation where both the date and time are crucial.

‍

Use Cases:
  • Event Bookings: Specify exact start times when organizing events, ensuring clarity for both attendees and organizers.
  • Appointments: Capture precise appointment times, improving scheduling accuracy and reducing the risk of overlaps or errors.
  • Project Deadlines: Record not only the due date but also the exact time, helping teams meet critical deadlines more effectively.

‍

How to Configure Date Fields to Capture Time Values:

1. Create Date Field: Start by adding a date field to your form.

2. Display Field Properties: Click on the field within the form layout to access its properties.

3. Enable Time Entry: In the field properties, check the box labeled 'Include Time.'

Once enabled, this feature adds a time entry input below the date picker on the form, allowing users to specify a time value alongside the date. This enhancement ensures that your data collection is both detailed and precise, tailored to meet the needs of your specific workflows.

This feature is available for All Plans.
