Hi,

in order to let Cobalt sort by a custom date field, I have set one date field to override the creation date.

This custom date field however, has in a lot of cases an older date than the actual creation date. In my application I want to display the actual creation date of a record, but since this is overridden by the custom date I end up with creation dates like 100 years ago.

I have noticed in the database that there's a column in js_res_record named inittime. This column represents the actual creation date of a record.

How can I display this date in a record?

Best regards, Jeff

Lucky guy! Glad to hear that someone else recognize the importance of that additional date. Took me quite some time and many posts to convince Sergey :D ;)

Konstantin $item->inittime;

Maybe all default templates should get a respective parameter!?
