Due Date based on a variable showing incorrect Time

asked on September 20, 2017

Hi All,

I have a Form that is used to by staff to fill in job requests.

We have two fields that are filled by staff within the form that is:

1. Required by date:

2. Required by Time:

The time can be changed as per user requirements and in my test, I set it to 11 AM.

Once the Form has been submitted, the Admin staff receive an email populating the correct Date and time based on variables set:

But, in the user task, it is always referencing the time as per below:

Even if I check the options under the variable:

It still is unable to show the correct time and the Field Variables do not show the time Field i have set on the form:

The user receives it in LF Forms as per below:

-->

Question is, how can I show the Due time based on the user selection? Am I using the incorrect field for this? Should it not be split as I have set it? The only reason I split them was that I was unable to set the Time as I needed with the Date/Time Field, it only gives you an option for the start of the Form and not anything else?

Please advise?

Thank you,

Hi Ziad,

I noticed that you have set it to "0 Days after". Does it do the same if you change to the Days to hours?

edit: just tested and set the Date field to include time as well. Change the due date to 0 hours past the variable and see how it goes. It seems to be working for me.

If you need to set the default time within the datetime component - use this:

$(document).ready(function(){

$('#DateTimeField2').val('17:00:00');

});

Just check and make sure the field id for your Time field matches 'DateTimeField2'.

Kind Regards,

Aaron
