We, on the individual Ch 11 task force, wrote a form motion for a bar date. Look in the 2081 forms.

I usually file a negative-notice motion and propose a deadline of no less
than 45 days from the date of the service of a notice of the bar date (but,
in any event, a business day). That way, it gives you a bit more
flexibility regarding when to file the notice - though you usually want to
serve it asap. The 45 days will depend on the judge, too. Some judges
allow 30 days, but some require 45 days and others up to 60 days. I wish
the Court would just set it automatically when you file the Chapter 11 case
like they do in the Eastern District of California.

See FRBP 3003(c)(3), LBR 3001. It's usually done by debtor's motion, with
at least 45 days between the hearing date and the proposed bar date.

In this case, the court did not set the bar date. Instead of filing a
motion to establish the bar date, can it just be stated in the ch 11 Plan?
If so, are there any guidelines for setting it? Or can the debtors
essentially choose any date they want?

Thanks for the thorough answer. In this case, I represent the debtor and Im
trying to set a bar date on the ch 11 plan Im drafting.
Not sure if the Code dictates a bar date or if I can just choose one.

If you don't file a POC in a Chapter 11 case, but you've been scheduled,
you agree with the amount and character of your claim as the debtor has
scheduled it and none of the three little boxes has been checked off (i.e.,
C/U/D), then the scheduled amount governs and you must receive a
distribution, if any, on the basis of the scheduled claim. It is usually
better practice, though, to file the POC asap, anyway. If no bar date
notice has been sent out by the DIP or the Chapter 11 Trustee (if it's a
rare case in which one has been appointed), then there is no bar date.
However, some people don't set bar dates and still confirm a plan. In
that case, you're bound by the plan, which is what militates in favor of
filing a POC asap. Note, however, that there are instances in which you
may not want to file a POC -- such as when you don't want that to be used
to establish jurisdiction over your client, but you only do that when
you're secured or already otherwise protected -- in other words, a rare
circumstance requiring more analysis.

How does one determine the deadline to file a proof of claim in a chapter
11 case?
The initial notice says "notice of deadline will be sent at a later time"
