How can I have a field that will automatically populate the submission date when a Laserfiche form is submitted.

You can also use current_date on the default box and this will automatically populate the date the form was submitted. As long as you make it read only, it can't be changed.

If you want to use this value in subsequent steps, you can use the previous submission completion time in default value and set it to readonly.

If you want a field to store the submission time, you can only use JavaScript.

JavaScript is not necessary. As Angela mentioned, setting a read-only field with current date as the default will provide the desired results because it doesn't set the value until submission (this seems to be true for both form designers).
