Time Formats

When creating a new field with a type of Time Format, you need to select the time format type from the Format drop-down.

The table below describes each format type.

In the Format column, the colon (:) is the separator character. When the document is generated in Studio, this colon will be replaced by the character you have selected using the Separator drop-down list. In the examples below, the separator is a colon, but it can also be a comma, dash, period, or space.
