Back date sys_created_on in import set

Is there a way to back date the sys_created_on when importing records using an import set? I want to import several hundred incidents and have the Created date be a date in the past.

You should be able to override the created date by using the 'autoSysFields' flag when the records are created. That will ensure that the system doesn't write to the created or updated fields. Then you'll need to manually supply the values for those fields (created/updated on and by).

That worked, but when the records are created, I lose all the related tabs (notes, related records, closure information).


I'm not sure why that's happening, but I doubt if it has anything to do with the dates on the record. You'll want to make sure you're setting the dates in the correct format for your system and that you're also setting the other field values correctly.


Hi,

How you upload the created date for this records?
