      We have a monitoring item for the event log "vmware.eventlog[\{$VMWARE.URL},skip]". Everything is collected correctly:

       

      Timestamp                  Local time                   Value
      2024-07-30 11:23:45 AM     2024-07-30 11:23:38 AM       Agency status changed from yellow to red

      This generates too much data, so according to the documentation on https://www.zabbix.com/documentation/current/en/manual/config/items/preprocessing/examples#filtering-vmware-event-log-records , we used dependent items of the log type to filter the data - this also works without any issues:

       

      Timestamp                  Local time                   Value
      2024-07-30 11:23:46 AM                                 Agency status changed from yellow to red

       

      However, we noticed that the "local time" column is empty. Is there a way to inherit the "local time" from the master item? In this case, the "Log time format" field cannot be used because the local time is parsed in the Zabbix code (src/libs/zbxvmware/vmware_event.c).
