Transactions should have timestamps for "time of transaction" and "latest change" #6

There is currently one date field, which is when the transaction was entered into the database.

This is a feature request for a date field when the transaction occurred.

Original comment by Magnus Hoff (Bitbucket: maghoff, GitHub: maghoff):

Agreed.

The current timestamp is however a "work in progress", in Politically Correct, for a "time of transaction"-timestamp, it was never intended as "time of record creation". It gets a default value that is the time of creating the transaction record, but this is a sensible default for the "time of transaction" field. Of course, the "time of transaction" should be easily editable when entering the transaction.

A "latest change"-timestamp is also needed for feeds showing the latest actions, such as the Activity-feed and individual users' Atom feeds.

So I'm rephrasing the title of this issue to: Transactions should have timestamps for "time of transaction" and "latest change".
