Hi @EstebanBustamante thanks for ur time to reply .In my case whenever i tried to change any property these two property not getting updated should i try with some launcher configuration to trigger the the OOTB workflow like DAM metadata writeback or DAM set Last modified date workflow or is there any other workflow need to trigger ?

Metadata update should not affect the date under original rendition.

OOTB, metadata update is not updating any modification date on the Asset. We might need to write a Workflow launcher to update a custom property when metadata updates. We would need to listen to changes in "metadata" node and listen to only the required properties.

This can be achieved by creating a custom launcher and invoking "Dam set last modified date" OOTB workflow model. This updates both jcr:lastModified and jcr:lastModifiedBy both properties. Problem with "Dam metadata writeback" is, it update jcr:lastModifiedBy property with the "DAM write Service"  service user but not the actual user who is editing asset.

Note -: Here important properties which should be updated carefully in launcher are  "Event Type", "Path" and "exclude list" properties as mentioned in below image.
