Quote from info section "(org) Creating Timestamps":


    8.2 Creating Timestamps
    =======================

    For Org mode to recognize timestamps, they need to be in the specific
    format.  All commands listed below produce timestamps in the correct
    format.

    ‘C-c .’ (‘org-time-stamp’)
         Prompt for a date and insert a corresponding timestamp.  When point
         is at an existing timestamp in the buffer, the command is used to
         modify this timestamp instead of inserting a new one.  When this
         command is used twice in succession, a time range is inserted.

         When called with a prefix argument, use the alternative format
         which contains date and time.  The default time can be rounded to
         multiples of 5 minutes.  See the option
         ‘org-time-stamp-rounding-minutes’.

         With two prefix arguments, insert an active timestamp with the
         current time without prompting.

    ‘C-c !’ (‘org-time-stamp-inactive’)
         Like ‘C-c .’, but insert an inactive timestamp that does not cause
         an agenda entry.
