Hello, Jensen Head

Thank you for the report, We have reproduced this, it appears that a recent minor patch to one of our systems caused this, the Dev team is working on a resolution as we speak. For tracking:

RT#6091: Bug: Errors in XMP package - keyword metadata not saved in correct location.

Kind regards,

Hello, Jensen Head

I'm sorry, I don't understand what it is you are drawing attention to in the Gif here. We are looking at the Subject, keyword, and description fields for this report. You seem to call attention to the subject field initially, then you open the additional metadata and those fields are missing, which is indeed part of what we are looking at here, but then you call attention to the modified date, which seems to be consistent across the board?
Is there something I am missing here?

Kind regards,

I paid attention not to the date, but to the lack of information in the XML metadata, which is visible on the first window of the document's properties. Although, they should appear in all three places: in "Document Properties" / "Description", "Additional Metadata..." / "Description", and "Additional Metadata..." / "Advanced".

Hello, Jensen Head

Understood, These are all separate fields so far as the document metadata is concerned and does not necessarily need to be mirrored. Until now we have not mirrored these items, but the Team is working on changing that for the future. It will be some time before that is complete, but it is in the pipeline, all as part of the ticket I created above.
