Change Date Added

I was trying to see if there was a way to make changes to the date added. I'm a recent convert and just switched from using Zotero. When I imported all of my files, it looks like for many of them. It made a note entry in the reference entry. It would be nice to edit the entries in Bookends to have the same "date added" when I added them to my original Zotero account. Is the "Added Date" metadata that can be edited, and how do you do that?

The only article that I could find in the forum about this topic was [Request: Record the "date added"](viewtopic.php?f=2&t=1081&p=4920&hilit=d ... data#p4920)

No, sorry, those are not for users to modify.

You can of course dedicate a field for that (say, User1) and modify it as you like. With Global Change it's easy to modify some or all references at once.
