Datetime field and CreationDate field look different

hm_stella

Hello, Survey masters.

I am stuck with a problem of using date time field in Survey. I made a field whose type is dateTime to record when the survey is submitted.

After submitting, I checked the hosting feature layer in my ArcGIS Pro and found out this incoherence.

Usually, the CreationDate records the time in UTC and followingly, the dateTime field as well.

However, these two fields look different although I have changed nothing. 

i.e. The first feature is monitored at 2:51 AM on 2021-03-16 while the CreationDate made at 6:53 AM on the same date. Both are using UTC time.

Does anyone know why this issue happens?

Hi @hm_stella 

Just to check, how are records being submitted from Survey123? Are users submitting from the field app using the outbox (i.e. saved to the outbox and then submitted later)? Also is the Monitoring Time question read-only, or is it possible for users to modify it before submit? Does it have a calculation on it?

Thanks & best, Jim
