This document describes how to modify the Created date field in the Issue Navigator to include the time. By default, the column view of the field hard-codes the rendering format to the locale specific "Day" format.

Procedure for JIRA 4.2 and Before

Edit the file JIRA_INSTALL_DIR/atlassian-jira/WEB-INF/classes/templates/jira/issue/field/created-columnview.vm to always use the extended formatDMYHMS rather than formatDMY.
For example, the following macro fragment should be changed:

Original - short data format
#if ($created)
    #if (${displayParams.excel_view})
        $outlookDateManager.getOutlookDate($authcontext.getLocale()).formatDMYHMS($created)
    #else
        $outlookDateManager.getOutlookDate($authcontext.getLocale()).formatDMY($created)
    #end
#else
     
#end
Edited - full time-stamp
#if ($created)
    $outlookDateManager.getOutlookDate($authcontext.getLocale()).formatDMYHMS($created)
#else
     
#end

For JIRA 4.3 and Later

Edit the file JIRA_INSTALL_DIR/atlassian-jira/WEB-INF/classes/templates/jira/issue/field/date-columnview.vm:

#if ($value) <span title="${title}"><time datetime="${iso8601}">${title}</time></span> #else &nbsp; #end
