Use View Model to bind view instead of actual model, which will contain DateTime type of property. Then Map View Model to actual Entity Model.
View Model:
class AgrRowVM
{
public DateTime? FrDt {get; set;}
//Rest of the properties
}
Model:
class AgrRow
{
public int? FrDt {get; set;}
//Rest of the properties
}
After posting values to serverside map View Model to Orginal model.
if(agrRowVMObj.FrDt.HasValue)
{
agrRowObj.FrDt = int.Parse(agrRowVMObj.FrDt.ToString("yyyyMMdd"));
}
