Overview
Time Input collects a time of day - when a reading was taken, when the power went off and came back. It can start on the current time so the technician only adjusts it.
Step by step: add a time field
- Select the section it belongs in.
- Click Time Input under + Add Fields.
- Type the question in Heading, such as “Time of isolation”.
- Tick Default to now if the answer is usually the moment they fill it in.
Its own setting
- Default to now - starts the field on the time the form is opened.
It also has the settings most fields share.
On the phone and the report
The phone shows a time picker. The report prints the time as entered.
Date and time together
There is no single date-and-time field. Put a Date field and a Time field side by side - a Table Section with Fields across set to 2 lays them out on one row.
