Add creation date for sequences

Currently, the 'Creation Date' field under 'Metadata Display' does not show when sequences is created.
I suggest that Premiere Pro adds support for displaying the creation date for sequences, allowing users to quickly see when a sequence was created directly within the metadata view.


This would make it much easier to organize and locate older sequences, especially in larger productions with many sequences.
Ideally, the creation date could be shown in the bin view along with other metadata fields.

 

Benefits
Better project and sequence management
Faster workflows in larger projects
More consistent metadata handling between media and sequences

This is yet another example of how Premiere is not designed for the big leagues as much as they like to tout they are. Who in their right mind would NOT have a way to know when a sequence is created and modified? Real editors create multiple copies of sequences as they are working. Sometimes, naming schemes get mixed up. Typos happen. When you’re working with 100’s or even 1000’s of sequences across the span of a complex Production, you need to be able to know, with certainty, which sequence was created at a specific time.

Avid and Resolve have this. Heck, even the worst of the worst FCPX has creation & modification date for sequences. There is zero excuse for Premiere to not have this.

An idea is the same as a feature request.

Multiple feature requests wont get logged and upvoted.

Each idea needs it own post.

p.s. i don't think the adobe website, and forums in particular, are easy to navigate, so don't spend a lot of time searching that forum list. do your best and we'll move the post (like this one has already been moved) if it helps you get responses.
