<h1>Entry time stamps</h1>
<p>This feature can be toggled and configured under <b>Options ->
Preferences -> General</b>.</p>
<p>JabRef can automatically set a field to contain the date an
entry was added to the database.</p>
<h2>Formatting</h2>
<p>The formatting of the time stamp is
determined by a string containing designator words that
indicate the position of the various parts of the date.</p>
<p>These are some of the available designator letters (examples
are given in parentheses for Wednesday 14th of September 2005
at 5.45 PM):</p>
<ul>
<li><b>yy</b>: year (05)</li>
<li><b>yyyy</b>: year (2005)</li>
<li><b>MM</b>: month (09)</li>
<li><b>dd</b>: day in month (14)</li>
<li><b>HH</b>: hour in day (17)</li>
<li><b>mm</b>: minute in hour (45)</li>
</ul>These designators can be combined along with punctuation
and whitespace. A couple of examples:
<ul>
<li><b>yyyy.MM.dd</b> gives <b>2005.09.14</b></li>
<li><b>yy.MM.dd</b> gives <b>05.09.14</b></li>
<li><b>yyyy.MM.dd HH:mm</b> gives <b>2005.09.14
17:45</b></li>
</ul>
