Time value types

You can use the Date, Simple Date, and Universal Date, and Time value types to express time values.

In the following table, a is the symbol for AM or PM, and z is the time offset information, for example +0200.

Table 1.
Time value	Description
Date	Standard date format that includes time, and is written as: `m/d/y h:mm:ss a` The time zone of the solution is applied to the date value to define a time point.
Simple Date	Simple date format that does not include time, and is written as: `m/d/y` The time zone of the solution is applied to the simple date value to define a time point.
Time	Time format that is written as either: `h:mm:ss a` `h:mm a`
Universal Date	Date and time format that includes the time offset, and is written as: `m/d/y h:mm:ss a z`
