Hi @Leakhena Oeun ,
Unfortunately Smartsheet does not currently support time or time formats outside of the system generated Last Modified or Created columns. You can't format a form field to Time. The time has to be manually entered or you can use the Modified or Created system columns.
@Paul Newcome posted the ultimate guide to time calculations at: https://community.smartsheet.com/discussion/68947/formulas-for-calculating-time#latest
Might be something in there to help you find a workaround until Smartsheet add more time functionality.
Help?

Hi all,
I'm also looking for a way to have hours/minutes entered on a form.
This is required to collect opening and closing hours for each day of the week in a sheet.
So actually I need 14 time fields in 1 form (in 24H format not AM or PM)
Is there a way to set that in columns, so the form does not show 14 "lines" but 2 columns per day to enter the opening / closing hours side by side and viewed in a glance.
Something like this (screenshot from Excel Userform)
Besides that it would be really helpful if dates could be entered as dd-mm-yyyy as this is the default setting in Europe instead of mm/dd/yyyy
Can you tell me if you think Smartsheet can meet these requirements?
Thank you for your time in advance.

Unfortunately, it's not possible at the moment to get the same structure with the fields beside each other, but it's an excellent idea!
Please submit an Enhancement Request when you have a moment.
Regarding the dates, It's possible.
This might help.
I developed a solution using two forms (or the same form by using conditional logic) that can be used to submit the main information and then the other information on a new row for each submission after the first.
Would that work/help?
I hope that helps!
Be safe and have a fantastic week!

Hi @Andrée Starå ,
Thank you for your reply. I will submit such a Change Request for sure.
I'm a newbie at Smartsheet and don't understand exactly how I could create the 2 forms with conditional logic as you suggest. I've only seen a tutorial video with the basics of conditional logic (as you might have guessed I'm more familiar with VBA)
Can you show me an example or screenshot so I can get a better understanding?
