Hello Frank Westerbuhr , what synchronizing tool do you use? Can't it be configured to synchronize only the delta information, the differentiations?

In principle yes, but not in this case.

Anyhow, Octane, also 23.4, has a function, which clearly supports to recognize changes / modifications. By UI and user manual. So it just should be able to do it.

And for my understanding, Octane "knows", if there is a change or not, as it behaves differently on a change and re-write.

When we write a different value, it puts that change of a field into History and triggers "change". When we write the same value again, it does NOT write that into History and triggers "change".

When I buy a calculator with a percentage calculation button, which does not really calculate percentages, I can not say, could you use multiplication and division also?

Hi Frank Westerbuhr 

I suggest that you will submit a support ticket.

Hi Ehud, you are right and I did so. I thought that someone might experienced the same and had a hint.

Hi Frank Westerbuhr 

I would like to suggest a different approach.

The field that you set the value to is a Memo field, i.e., a rich text field. The text in it is a decorated html text. The text that you currently send is plain text.

I would like to suggest that you will do the following:

1. PUT plain text to the description field
2. GET the text stored in the description field
3. PUT the same text you received in step #2 to the field
4. Watch what happens to the "Requirement updated" field
