Timestamps Later than Last Updated

This article pertains to: Legacy API (V1) Inform (v2)

Why is the last_updated time before the timestamp of a record?

The "last_updated" date is not necessarily always after the "timestamp" date. This is because users are able to manually enter the date of their activity for many of the apps available from Validic. If the user logs an entry for a future date, Validic will retrieve the record when it is logged and set "last_updated" to the current time but the "timestamp" of the record will be a future date. It is possible that users may do this to help them schedule their workouts.
