Date and Time custom field should ask for time in request form (Wrike Labs)
Hi team,
Hopefully there are some users here who have been testing the Add times to date custom fields feature in Wrike Labs:

While I think this is a great feature, I spotted some gaps/issues with it:
- Calendars still cannot read custom date fields --> we cannot apply time to the standard Start and Due date native fields, so we cannot get granular representation of tasks on a Calendar at the time level (not just date)
- Even though a custom date field has time enabled on it, adding a question that ties to this CF on a request form does NOT ask the user for the time --> renders the feature useless for request forms
For context on the settings:
Custom field configuration - time capture enabled

Request form question and field configuration - date question set to drive to the CF

Resulting request form question submission - only asks for date, no way to enter time

We are trying to use Wrike external request forms to capture requests for booking our Experience Centers in our global offices. We created a form to capture request dates/times as well as logistics needed to plan these office visits. We also created a public calendar to show requesters the availabilities of these rooms that we share with requesters. It is possible to have multiple bookings in the same day, but they need to be at different times otherwise there will be conflicts. I thought I would be able to use this time feature, but we cannot do so and it is extremely debilitating and can cause major issues if conflicts in scheduling arise because this information cannot be factored in to the fields, request form, and calendar.
Hi Anna Giacobbe, thank you once again for highlighting important points and creating such a detailed feedback post. We'll ensure it is forwarded to the appropriate product team 👍

The time field on a request form is essential. Also, adding start and end time would also be prudent if you have a time in custom fields. But if I had a choice, get time on request forms first.
Thanks for the support, Lorne Cassoff!
