  Set Target Start Date in the past: 01/01/21 09:00; Save
  
  2)
  From More Actions -> Select Deferrals;

  Deferral by clicking in the new Row; Observe the Original Date
  is set as current date (here - 15/01/21 09:17);
  (ii) Enter
  Type: FLB; Reason: MAINT; Source: MCC; Duration: 10; Extended
  Date is increased to Original date + Duration which is as
  expected (here- 25/01/21 09:17);
  (iii) At this point, Original
  Date is current date; Extended date is 'Original date +
  Duration' and Deferral status is PENDING.

  Deferral Status to ACTIVE; Click Ok
  
  3) Go to Deferrals again;

  RESULT:
  Original date in the Deferrals is replaced/overwritten with the
  Initial Target Start date. (here- 01/01/21 09:00)
  
  
  EXPECTED
  RESULT: Original date should be the same as it appeared while

  09:17)
