eCollect - how to add a date field

Scott_Hansen — Wed, 10 Sep 2025 17:26:09 GMT

I'm brand new to using Ecollect. I'm trying to put my first form together, but can't figure out how to add a datepicker?

Hoping someone can point me in the right direction.

Thanks,

Scott

You're not missing anything. Use a Single-Line text element, and then bind the element to a field in PowerSchool that's of type Date, like DOB or Entry Date. In a pinch, create your own Database Extension on the Students table, and make it Date type, you're home free.
