Do we make the Event Instance Date Time Formatted field on Summit Events Registration object a formula field?
Describe the solution you'd like
The Event Instance Date Time Formatted field is populated due to code when a registration record is created, taking the information from the instance and placing it in a text field. The issue is that most of that data surrounding it are formula fields from the instance. When users update the instance or perhaps change the lookup instance on the Registration record, all the fields update, but the Event Instance Date Time Formatted field. Users were expecting that field to update as well.
Describe alternatives you've considered
I can create a formula field that would have all the pieces except the time zone abbreviation which the users could add to a template themselves.
To help determine if a recipe may be more appropriate, please share other use cases, if possible, this functionality would benefit from.
I think users could do the same thing that I am doing, but it might alleviate confusion if it were in the package and the text field that is not a formula is removed.
Are you willing and interested in being engaged during the development and testing process?
Yes

Would it be possible to create this field as a true formula field? Currently this is just a formatted timestamp of sorts generated by code at the time of registration.
