Hi all,
Maybe this is so simple that I am overlooking it. How would I retain the original file dates while importing files to Odoo? I am interested in the import date too (like now), but this is not my first concern. I would like Odoo to keep (and show) the original file date which of course could be ages ago...
Best regards
Hi,
By default, Odoo does not preserve a file’s original creation or modification date when importing; it only records the upload date (create_date). If you want to keep the original file date, you need to add a custom field on attachments or documents. This can be done manually during import (via CSV), through a small customization that extends ir.attachment to capture the file’s metadata automatically, or in the Documents app by adding a custom property such as Original File Date. In short, Odoo always records when a file is uploaded, but retaining the original file date requires an extra field and configuration.
Hope it helps
Hi,
All files and their data are in the [Developper mode activated]
→ settings > Technical > Attachements > open a file and you have the create date visible there.
I just verified and the files has a date field you can place on the list view (attachements)

Hello Rani,
Thanks for the hints! Would this work for the Documents app, too? I managed to establish a new column "File Modification Date" and it does show and accept calendar dates. Now where would I find the create method to be called on adding a new document?
Thanks in advance!
