    @Anonymous ,

    The issue here is how (and where from) you are writing the date back to SharePoint. It will not work from that Label

    Simply write Now() back to SharePoint assuming this is a new record.

    @Anonymous ,

    On the Update of the Data Card belonging to that field - as I mentioned this is only for new records.

    @WarrenBelz  In the apps screenshot is new form not viewing mode.

    So that would work as I set out.
