Default Date Mode

If no time information is provided, the Start Date will default to the beginning of the day, and the End Date will default to the end of the day. As a result, an event starting and finishing on the same date will have a duration of 1 full day (recommended settings).

Legacy Date Mode

If no time information is provided, both the Start Date and End Date will default to the beginning of the day. This means that an event starting and finishing on the same date will have no duration and will be treated as a milestone.
