Not Changing text field to Date/TIme

[Shekhar Deshin1]

Hi,

We have this field Expiration date' (u_expiration_date) on custom table in String/Text format.
We are running Utha release instance however we are not able to change this String field to Date/Time in Dictionary entry for u_expiration_date,

Please suggest what is the reason that we are not getting Date/Time while search in Reference field.

Thanks,

Shekhar

Hi,

It is not recommended to change the tyoe from string to Date/Time as it is change in dictionary level.

Please delete the field and readd the field with same name and with type as "Date/Time" . This is recommended and will work.
