Improved Date field functionality

Several requests to improve the functionality and use of Date fields, particularly for those using Noloco Tables:

  • Ability to set a specific time zone for a date field in Noloco Tables. My team is spread out across timezones, which is challenging because the time on a Date/Time field doesn’t adjust.
  • Scheduled workflows. Ability to run workflows at set frequencies or based on relative date fields.
  • Functionality of TODAY() or NOW() in formulas in Noloco Tables. These don’t currently work correctly and sometimes spit out dates in the future or the past. I had hoped to use this as a way to overcome the lack of support for scheduled workflows.
  • Ability to write conditional formulas in Noloco Tables where the output can be formatted as a date. Currently, any IF THEN formula cannot be formatted as a date.
  • Ability to select a date field as a Primary Field in a Noloco Table

Thanks for the feedback @laurak

For this specific point, you just need to wrap your output in TODATE() and it will be a date field again

It’s explained here in the Noloco Guides
