What the Date Picker Component Does
The Date Picker component is like a calendar on your phone but inside your Salesforce. It shows a calendar with the current month and year, and users can click on a day to select it. You can also add buttons or menus to move between months and years quickly. Users can add extra details once a date is picked, like scheduling a task or event. This component is handy whenever users need to choose a date, such as in scheduling tools, forms, or reports.
Changing the Properties
Choosing Selection mode
The Calendar Component can be configured as single, multiple or interval mode. Only one single value can be selected simultaneously with the Single mode. Multiple mode, the user can select multiple dates. With Interval, the user can only select a date range (two dates).
