SharePoint date & time field

We have a list which contains 2 fields, Start Time and End Time. The default value is set to to Today's date and 00:00. When you create a new item in the modern list view and the set the values for both fields, its fine.

 

Then when you view the item and then edit all and change another field for example a single text field, the time value changes for both the date fields back to 00:00 when you save the item.

 

As the time field is quite critical for us this is an issue that i think is a bug in the new modern view. 

 

This does not happen in the classic sharepoint view. 

 

Any ideas??

    Just had confirmation that this is a bug by MS product team and hopefully by the end of next week(24/2/17) this will be fixed in SharePoint Online.

    Tested it on my developer tenant and I see the same behavior so I consider this a bug.

        Dear All!

         

        Any news? The problem remains - time fields are set to 00:00 when updating via edit form och information panel. The increment i per 30 minutes but we need per minute which can be typed in the box not using the drop down choice, but when edited everything is set to 00:00.

         

        Please let us know. created a single line of text and formated to time value to create a workaround but the SharePoint mobile app does not support columns with validation!!

         

        Moved on using PowerApps but the we lost the ability to add attachment / image via the form.

         

        It is hard to give customer what they need and sell the mobile first idea when there are these bugs.
