"Last Activity time" & "Modified TIme" from the LEADS MODULE

"Last Activity time" & "Modified TIme" from the LEADS MODULE

Hi,

I have observed that in the Lead MODULE when entries are made in the call fields of Open activities section it sets the "Last Activity time" for the lead.

Later any time you update any of the fields of Lead Information section the "Modified TIme" changes to the time of modification and it is observed that for such modification the   "Last Activity time" also changes to that of the modified ( lead information) time.

Ideally the "Last Activity time" which is the time of the call should not change when the any of the lead information is modified. 

In the lead dashbord the "Last Activity time" is our compass for getting to know when we last connected to that customer in an activity - call. Why does it have to change when you modify lead information ? If  "Last Activity time" changes for every lead information modification then we loose our compass ! - Please check this
