Date ​

Records a date, such as a planned visit or a document date.

When to use ​

Use it for booking, shipment, service, or invoice dates. Choose Due Date when the value represents the task deadline, or Created At for the system creation timestamp.

Settings ​

  • Default value and Date format (date_format; schema default dd-mm-yyyy).
  • Primary date (is_primary_date_field): marks the date used as the task's primary date. Only one Date field per form can be primary.
  • Maximum days back (max_days_back): limits how far in the past a date may be when creating a task. Empty, zero, or non-positive values disable this limit. It is not a general restriction on later edits.
  • Bold text, color, field size, and inline layout.

For example, allow a delivery date up to three days in the past when staff register recent deliveries.

See shared field settings for workflow visibility, requirements, and layout options supported by this type.
