You'll need to copy the helper.  This should really be packaged as a
plugin, but it's not at the moment.  Anyway, copy the helper to your
application's lib/.  Then, you can use this:

<%= label 'Sale Starts On', :product, :sale_starts_on %>
<%= date_picker_field :product, :sale_starts_on %>

Hope that helps !
