 Dates can be created with the `dateTime` and `dateTimeUTC` functions. The difference between them is that  `dateTime` uses the calendar of the session used in the function call, and `dateTimeUTC` uses the UTC calendar. The system session runs as UTC by default, except for scheduled events, which can be configured in the [Scheduled Event Time Zone](/refguide/app-settings/#scheduled) section of **App Settings**.

+Do not use `dateTimeUTC` in client-side expressions (for example, in nanoflows) if you want to assign the output to (or compare the output with) an attribute of type **Date and time** where **Localize** is disabled. In the client, the localization functionality is built into the attribute type itself, and using UTC functions causes the time zone conversion to be handled twice.

 This function does not accept variable or attribute parameters, only fixed values. To create a date using parameters, use the [parseDateTime](/refguide/parse-and-format-date-function-calls/#parsedatetime-utc) function.

 Takes a string and parses it. If it fails and a default value is specified, it returns the default value. Otherwise, an error occurs. The function `parseDateTime` uses the user's time zone and `parseDateTimeUTC` uses the UTC calendar.

-Per attribute of type **Date and time** you can specify whether you want the date and time to be localized. This is not a new feature but worth mentioning on this page. Both localized and non-localized attributes are stored in UTC but only localized attributes are converted to the time zone of the user when displaying their value. Use non-localized attributes if you are not interested in the time component (for example, birthdays) or if you want a date to look exactly the same all over the world.
