Symptoms

Old documents exported from a 3rd party content management system uploaded to UCM with Batch Loader show incorrect Date Created in the Document Library Task Flow in Spaces.
Instead of showing the check in date of UCM, which is a rather old date, it seems to show the indexing date of UCM, which is some time after loading the file.

As a result there is no way to tell which of the uploaded documents are old and new.
The Last Modified date also seems to match the Date Created.

Steps to Reproduce
===================
1. Create a BatchLoader txt file with the following content on the UCM server (i.e. my_insert.txt):

<path_to_batchloader_txt>

Make sure that the document loads successfully.

5. Login to UCM and confirm that the file was uploaded successfully to the right folder (i.e. Contribution Folders)
Note, that the Release Date shown in UCM matches the dInDate specified in the BatchLoader txt.

6. Login to Spaces and bring up the page with the Document Library Task Flow.

7. Make sure that the following columns are shown:
Last Modified
Date Created

8. Notice, that both
Last Modified
Date Created
show the same date some time after the load (i.e. indexing time) rather than Date Created showing the creation date and Last Modified showing the last modification date.
