Hi @manthenamah 

 

Since this is a Custom with Label variable using a custom widget, I'd first verify that the widget is actually setting the variable value on submit. The Map to field option only maps the submitted variable value, it doesn't populate it for you.

If the variable is empty, the issue is in the widget rather than the field mapping.

 

Also, does the Time value appear in the Variable Editor on the created record, or is it missing there as well? That will help determine whether it's a widget submission issue or a mapping issue.

 

For reference, Mark Roethof has a good article explaining how Map to field works and when you need to handle the mapping yourself:

Hope it helps,
