Include Project Creation Date in Portfolio export

Hi Andy,
thank you very much for taking the time.

About creating a custom field is a great idea, but does not apply to my team, as projects can be assigned to the portfolio latter, additionally I am looking for something that does not require manual effort from the team. I did look for custom field + formula, but we don’t have a formula to automatically provide the creation date

Start date is helpfull to track the project lead time, and I’ve been using, on this scenario I want to track the projects that are in “stand by”, so waiting for start date.

Please let me know in case you have additional ideas based on these inputs

Thank you very much!
