a!dateTimeField( label, instructions, required, readOnly, disabled, value, validations, saveInto, validationGroup, requiredMessage, labelPosition, helpTooltip, accessibilityText, showWhen )
Displays and allows entry of a single date and time (year, month, day, hour, minute, second). When the field is editable, users can input dates by typing or by picking from a calendar and then select the time from a dropdown. The date and time is shown in the current user's time zone and calendar format.
When working with a date (year, month, day), use a date component. To display a time (hour, minute, second), use a time component. To display a read-only date and time using a custom format, use a text component.
