I'm almost sure I have brought this up before, and I think others might have also. I know when I first mentioned it to our dear old friend "Old Man Weiland" and explained just some of the different needs for it, he immediately incorporated into his Tool Kit module "Last Update Date/Time Stamp" not only to products but categories and customers as well. I cannot image any business that would not benefit from this feature.

It would be easy to do with a custom field. Just include the date when creating/importing products, ignore it all the other times.Bruce Golub

Well, that would be a pretty simple module if you only wanted to track this through the admin changes. I don't think weiland's module could track imports unless you imported the changes through the module.Bruce Golub

I have needed this field for 12 years.. I just added a field in the product table in the database and have mysql automatically put a timestamp in it when a record is created. Piece of advice... make sure you use a field name that Miva would NEVER use, or things will break when updates and patches occur (learned that the hard way). I now alway use some letters and an underscore before a descriptive word, example: MY_timestamp. I use Toolkit to get that date and do things with it.
