Date field: a day with no time
A calendar day, with an earliest and latest allowed date, and an optional Hijri display.
How it works
The date isn’t affected by the time zone.
It works in date functions such as DATEDIFF.
Start Date and Due Date are two separate types that are tied to each other. See Start Date field: never after the due date.
