What is the difference between date.accessioned and date.available? According to the documentation:
Once any workflow process is successfully and positively completed, the InProgressSubmission object is consumed by an "item installer", that converts the InProgressSubmission into a fully blown archived item in DSpace. The item installer: Assigns an accession date Adds a "date.available" value to the Dublin Core metadata record of the item Adds an issue date if none already present And the metadata descriptions are as follows: date accessioned¹ Date DSpace takes possession of item. date available¹ Date or date range item became available to the public. But on the items I've checked, the date.accessioned and date.available are identical. Even in items where the provenance shows three days between submission and availability. I would have expected date.accessioned to be closer to the submission date. But I suppose there's the date.submitted for that, though that doesn't seem to be auto-populated. date submitted Recommend for theses/dissertations. Is the description.provenance field the only way to determine the time between submission and availability?
