Steps to reproduce:
- Create a simple product.
- Export the product created in step one.
- In the exported CSV file, put some values in the
news_from_dateandnews_to_datefields. For example, 2021-05-15 and 2021-06-18. - Import the product using the modified CSV file.
- Add additional columns “Set Product as New from Date” and “Set Product as New to Date” to the product grid.

- Go back to the product grid and check the data for the product.
Expected results:
Both “Set Product as New from Date” and “Set Product as New to Date” are the same as before saving.
Actual results:
-
Values in the “Set Product as New from Date” and “Set Product as New to Date” columns are changed.
