Update to release date not saving in Jira Cloud

Update to release date not saving in Jira Cloud

I am using Jira Cloud and am attempting to update release dates for unreleased versions. It allows me to edit the dates and save but reverts to the original date when I refresh the screen. I have admin rights and have tried doing this as project lead and as an administrator. How do I get the updated release date to stick?

This is what I do to solve this.

Let's say we have Version 1 need to be updated.
Create a new Version with correct setting (Version 1 Fix)
Merge Version 1 which you need to update the release date into Version 1 Fix
Rename Version 1 Fix to Version 1
Done

I tried this, but it reverts always to a month previous, due today. i.e. I tried to create a release, start Sep 4th 2018 end Sep 18th 2018.

It saved, and for a few moments I could refresh the screen and it would retain values.. but then the dates changed to, start Aug 3rd 2018 end Sep 3rd 2018.

I have no idea where to find a setting which may be causing a new release to be set back a month, due immediately. I have edited it a number of times, and no success.

Since we are all new, here, I hope we can somehow figure this out!
