Learn English – Less-technical synonym for “timestamp”

phrase-requestssingle-word-requestssynonyms

I've already looked at Is there a word for "a point in time"?, but there doesn't seem to be any answers other than "timestamp". While I agree that it is the most technically accurate description, is there a term that lends itself more to a business environment?

For example, I have a spreadsheet with a list of customer feedback. The date and time that each issue was reported is listed in a single column. What would be a good business-y name to call that column? I'm looking for something that means "timestamp" without using a term that could be…misconstrued…as overly technical.

EDIT: To be more specific and concise, I'm looking for a term that means "timestamp", is used more popularly in a business environment than "timestamp", and is generic enough to always mean "timestamp" with almost any data.

Just have it as Time. If you want to be specific then say Time Log, or Logged Time assuming that the word log isn't too technical.

Timestamp is not a recent term and has been in existence for a very long time. I highly doubt it will be misconstrued as something 'too technical'.
