Set lastUpdated field in Hapi Fhir JPA

Hi!

We’re using the hapi fhir jpa server as a replica server for some internal data. In order to manage change events (and not overwrite newer data with older data), I want to be able to set the lastUpdated field for resources and only update those resources when the lastUpdated field is older than the change event time. Unfortunately, I can’t seem to manually set the lastUpdated field on fhir resources; hapi fhir ignores the lastUpdated field I send it and instead overwrites it with the current time. Is there any way to disable this functionality and set it manually?

Thanks for your help
