Use the Date Helper

The Date Helper is available on forms throughout the user interface for specifying values in fields that require date and time entries.

To Use the Date Helper

  1. Click the link above the Date/Time field where you want to enter the value.

    The Date Helper window opens with all fields showing the current system date and time.

  2. Select the month, day, and year for the date you want to enter. The Next and Previous buttons move the calendar display forward and backward a month at a time.
  3. Select the 24-Hour check box if you want to enter the time in 24 hour format.

    The drop-down list displays 0–23 hours if the check box is selected, and 1–12 am and pm if the check box is cleared.

  4. Specify the time in the Hour and Minute fields.
  5. Click OK.

    The Date Helper window closes and your specified values appear in the Date/Time field.
