Body: <p>This client runs an urban gleaning program, harvesting fruit from residential trees and providing fruit to low income communities. A key piece of data is how much fruit is donated from each tree owner annually.</p>

  <p>Can we get the edit screen to respect the historic dates or can we find another way to input the data, which does not endanger the historic data?</p>

Comments.Text: Those are from the contact summary page. I inherited this site. I thought of putting the profile that feeds the summary in to a protected page (WordPress), but in testing, the contact search is not working. Still tinkering. Apparently, this has been the client's workflow.

Comments.Text: It's an older site and cleaning issues as quickly as I can. I'm not sure how the tab vs table or date formatting would impact the issue.  If I just run the update "bad things" happen. So, I'm cleaning up what I have before I update the site. I will take all of this advice to heart as I circle back to this issue.

  This client runs an urban gleaning program, harvesting fruit from residential trees and providing fruit to low income communities. A key piece of data is how much fruit is donated from each tree owner annually.

  This user adds a new harvest set to the contact, each time they donate fruit. This has been working, as you can see in the example, for several years.
  
  However, this year, when the admin attempts to update/add harvest data, the system seems to be changing the historic to (updating to no older than last year).
