    Hi Shashikant, thanks for reaching out.

    Side note: there are plenty of great women on here, I know I use 'guys' in general but perhaps we should use something else.

    Okay, the date change cannot happen after the attributes are created. However, that only affects the UI. As for the database those datetime fields are full UTC regardless of what is selected for UI.

    If users need to see time you need to create new field or replace with custom code that shows time by making API call for that field. All depends on impact to form or impact to database. Which is worse.

    Hope this helps.

    Hi Shashikant,

    You can change the Date Time field Behavior only when it is "User Local" (its default). once you change this to "Date Only" or "Time Zone Indipendent" upon saving it will warn you that you can modifiy after that, and you cannot do any modification on behavior again.

    As Tom suggested, you have to replace it with new field.

    Hi ,

    Hi Sashikant ,

    Unfortunately this is not possible , you can not change the date and time  field behavior once field created .

    However you can easily change the format .
