I need to make a content type with a *Start Date* and an *End Date*. I know that I can handle this in two ways:

1. Have two separate field
2. Have one field with a option of *"collect an end date"*.

I wonder when I should choose either of these options. I assume that the second option is for representing an Event in a Calendar. But if I don't need this, is the first option then the best?

**EDIT:**

If you plan use the "**collect an end date**" option you need read this:
