The creation date is not preserved, even though it is in the exported csv file. The imported task shows as if it were newly created, losing that valuable piece of information.
Is there any way to preserve the creation date of the task being imported? Or is there a fix pending for this?
NOTE: this is only for one particular task that I care about, so if it’s a more manual process to preserve the creation date I’d be happy to hear about that too.
One thing that comes to mind is to create a custom field within the project you’re going to migrate and populate it with the creation date of the tasks. That way, they will still have that info. When importing a project through a csv it becomes a newly created project, so all the data that was stored beforehand that wasn’t added into a Custom Field will not be accessible
