> If the photo has no Date Taken in DOpus, I do not recommend entering a date in the DOpus Date Taken field, as that results in incomplete date metadata being added to the file. I have brought this to the attention of the DOpus developers, so hopefully this will be fixed.

That's not the case from my own testing. Please keep discussion of that issue to [the thread which was made for it](https://resource.dopus.com/t/dates-in-photo-metadata/41142/9).
