Capture date/time when issue is created and updated

Question

Hello!

I need to capture the date and time when an issue is created and also the date and time when any edit was made to the issue, including when a comment is added to the Issue.

Is there a way to capture this information?

You will have to add a "Post Function" in the "Create" event to update a certain custom field to a custom value or a groovy expression. Something like "new Date()" will do the trick. There are many add-ons that can accomplish this post-function.

Thanks Chander! Yes, I do need more. I will need to capture the date and time for reporting purposes. Hence I need to capture it as a custom field. Any ideas on how I can do that?
