DateTime fields
Dates must consist of three fields: month, day, and year. The year must use four digits, and times must use a 24-hour clock. Observe these formatting considerations:
- By default, the date order format must match the order specified in the study configuration. If data is entered in a date order format that is different from the study configuration setting, you can override the setting by using the -datetimeformat command line parameter during import. For more information, see Running the InForm Data Import utility from the command line.
- If a datetime data item is missing a component, include a null field.
- If a component of a datetime item is unknown, use the keyword UNK.
