@jkmarx : The Shivdasani Lab's metadata template should populate all columns, though currently nothing is displayed for 'Date'. They have two fields in their template, 'Date_submitted' and 'Date_received', that are relevant here.

If the cross-data set browser could display one of these (preferably 'Date_submitted') in the 'Date' field, then we'd avoid empty columns, at least for our current primary users.

@gmnelson : These are different issues. I've added "Date submitted" to the list on #2458. Thanks!
