Using the itemId is imho way to go - since it is unique in the tracker system (speaking of classic trackers here, I'm not firm in mirror-table-trackers code). Showing this itemId in the listing and item-view is also technically possible and will come in future releases - any help on tracker work is highly welcome!

Yes, the creation date is already automatically recorded, imho no reason to create an additional field manually. Again here just is the display-issue. You can display it in the listing, but not yet in the item-view.

There are no comments at this time.
