Why does a date field always return a default value rather than the input date?

[Andrew]

Hello friends,

For the  Kendo Grid, when we add a new record, a date field is always the default value 01/01/0001 in the post back record. It should return the input date value rather than 01/01/0001 (or null if this date field is not required)

However, when we update this 01/01/0001 field in this new created record, the correct date value is returned in the post back record and can be updated successfully.

We are using VS 2022. (When checking mdGiving, we found that date field value is always 01/01/0001 no matter what we entered for that field in the grid.)

        [AcceptVerbs(HttpVerbs.Post)]
        public ActionResult AddMdGivingData([DataSourceRequest] DataSourceRequest request, MDGIVING mdGiving)
        {

        }

Any ideas?

Thank you very much for your help.

Hi Andrew,

Thank you for the provided information. 

Yes, you are totally correct - the described behavior is not expected.

In order to try my best to resolve it, I will need further information and code. The fastest route to getting you up and running is if you could provide a runnable, isolated, sample project. Examining this project will let us replicate the issue locally and further troubleshoot it.

Looking forward to hearing back from you.

Hello Anton,

Thank you very much for your reply.

We fixed this problem. We need to stringify the data object.

Thanks again.
