    Hi Abdul,

    Thanks for using Jotform. Can you explain a bit more about the 'Update inline record date' field you're referring to? We'd appreciate it if you can provide a screenshot of that field. As for the Submission date, unfortunately, there's no unique name assigned for that since it can only be displayed in the submissions table and its value is only generated after the submission. If you're looking to add the submission date to the notification/autoresponder email, what you can do as a workaround is this:

    1. Add a Date Picker field into your form and hide it

    2. Open the Date Picker field's Properties panel by clicking the Properties button (gear icon)

    3. Go to the Options tab and set the Default Date to Current

    You can then use the unique name of this field as the replacement for the submission date since this will always display the current date.

    Let us know if you have any other questions.
