Solved: SharePoint custom list calendar view End Date problem
Use Case: You need a calendar view for a custom list which has a Start Date and End Date . For example: events, training, travel, bookings, etc. Problem: You will face this peculiar problem. If ...
We are also having the same issue on our calendars. Would it not be simpler to change the column setting from "date only" to "date and time"? And then, when the user creates an event, they can add a time of 6:00:00PM in that field going forward. Or would changing the column settings disrupt the data in legacy events?
- Yes, you are right. Creating a date and time column type will solve this too. However, in scenario where user is required to only enter date and not time, user interface will be confusing or irritating.
In my scenario, users block training rooms, very often across days. The requirement (also users habit) is to only enter booking dates and not time.But what if I change the settings on the current column? In other words, I don't create a new column I just change the settings on the existing column. My fear is, doing this, it will mess up past data. We can enforce entering the time, so that's not a problem.
