Issue/Introduction

When a custom date attribute is set during the creation of a Project from a template, an entry is added to the audit trail noting that the field has changed, when that isn't accurate.

1. On the Project object create a custom date property.
2. Update the auditing settings on the Project object to audit the new property for changes
3. In the MUX modify the Blueprint's Template settings to add the new field to the Template creation settings.
4. Ensure that the Template Project is associated to the Blueprint modified. Ensure that the template has a date defined on the new date field
5. Create a new Project from the template, set the date (on the custom field) to whatever desired value during the creation.
6. Review the audit information

 

Expected Results:
No change entry should be present. For out of the box date fields, no change audit is created.

Actual Results:
A new record in the audit is added for a "change" to the date field

Workaround:
None noted
