Symptoms

 When creating a new promotion using the 'Copy to new' functionality, you observe incorrect data in RPM_PROMO_DTL.CREATE_DATE
 You expect the new promotion to show today's date and not the date of the original promotion


The issue can be reproduced at will with the following steps:
1. In Promotion Maintenance select an order promotion and then select the 'Copy to New' function.
2. Give the new promotion a new start date and end date
3. Approve the new promotion
4. In RPM_Promo_dtl check the create date
5. Check the create date of the promo copied
6. You will see that the new promo created today has the wrong create date.
