Can you add a timer to a non task form?

I have to add a timer like on Incident but to the New Call table. Is there a way to do that? I do not see it as a valid field type.

I realize this is an old post, just wanted to let you know that I followed your steps on a non-task table and it's working for me.


After I posted the above, I realized that something did break.   If you implement this, and you have glide.ui.timer.started set to No, it might break everywhere except where you just added the timer field (they will all start automatically).   Setting that to Yes actually has the opposite affect - your task-extended timers will not start automatically, and your non-task extended timers will start automatically.  



I would be very curious to know why this happens, and will post again if I can determine why or a fix.   I may have to remove the timer field from its new location and do things differently.
