Why is useState not re-rendering the changes for dates?

I have a react form where I have to put in a logic if startdate > endate, it should revert the startdate to current date. I am adding the form values in an useState array object.
Initial array object looks like this -

num:"12345"
startdate: "06/14/2023"
enddate: "06/01/2023"

I have put in a validation check and once it finds that startdate > enddate, it should change the value of startdate to current date.

const [form, setForm] = useState({})

  const revertStartDate = (field) => {
    if (field == 'enddate') {
      setForm((prev) => {
        prev.startdate = new Date().toISOString() // using internal day calculator
        return {...prev}
      }
      )
    }
  }

The above code changes the form to below :

num:"12345"
startdate: "04/19/2023"
enddate: "06/01/2023"

But it doesn't reflect the same on the UI. The UI still shows 06/14/2023 for the startdate. I have read other answers that it's not changing the state even though the values are getting changed.

Any suggestion on how to re-render the form for the startdate?

I can't comment due to low contribution but it would be helpful if you also provide code snippet to your <input>.

You might want to consider reading the docs:
Controlling an input with a state variable

I think you can't mutate state directly. If you want to make sure read this doc.

    const [form, setForm] = useState({})

  const revertStartDate = (field) => {
    if (field == 'enddate') {
      setForm((prev) => {
        return {
          ...prev,
          startdate: new Date().toISOString()
        }
      }
      )
    }
  }

In my opinion updating state like that doesn't trigger re-render.

     setForm((prev) => {
       prev.startdate = new Date().toISOString() // using internal day calculator
       return {...prev}
     }

Do you want update this directly? Use immer!
