Where does the time come from that shows next to the date for the "date" field type?

Emilie

There's a time that displays next to the date for the "date" field type on the PDF mapping of my form. This time doesn't seem to correlate with any of the US time zones. Where is this time coming from? Is there a way to set it up so that it creates an accurate time stamp based on my location?

Hello @Emilie

Check Time Zone Settings in Smartsheet:

• Go to your profile settings by clicking on your avatar in the top right corner.
• Select "Account" and check the "Time Zone" settings.
• Ensure that your correct time zone is selected to align the timestamps accordingly.

Adjust Time in PDF Mapping:

• Smartsheet doesn’t allow direct modification of the time zone for form fields. However, if you need the date to be displayed in a specific time zone, you may have to manually adjust the time or include a formula field that calculates the correct time based on your desired time zone.

Hope this helps.
