Checks whether the incoming value is a valid date or time. Use this to confirm a date field holds a real, well-formed date before you rely on it, or to separate records with a usable date from ones you need to clean up or reject. When you set a Format, the value not only has to be a real date but also has to be written exactly in that layout, so 2026-06-19 passes the format Y-m-d while 19/06/2026 does not. Leave the Format empty to accept any date or time the system can recognise.

With the Format left empty, both values above would match, because each can still be read as a date.
