I want the date field to include date and time

Robert Gallegos

The created field has a default date and time. How do I get this to my user field? I want both date and time in one cell to allow duration calculations...

Hi @Robert Gallegos

Hope you are fine, please try the following formula:

Bassam, Excellent work around. Any suggestions to trigger another date (finish date) like the created date?
