Set Log Date & Entered For
As of version 5, the Time Tracking Application no longer sets the Created Date and Created By fields on Time Tracking Summary records. Instead, the Log Date and Entered For custom fields are set.
Click the Set Log Date & Entered For button on the App Upgrades page to execute a batch job that copies the Created Date field value to the Log Date field and copies the Created By field value to the Entered For field on existing Time Tracking Summary records with blank custom fields.
