date created in firebase functions is different from the date created in angular

Question

When a date object is created and set into firestore document using below

Firebase function:

var updateData = {status: 'closed', closedOn: new Date()}; 
    db_fs.collection("bookings").doc(bookingDocId).update(updateData).then(async () => {console.log("Document successfully updated!");});

then it goes into firebase like below

But if I set the date in the request (i.e. angular) instead of setting date inside firebase functions

Angular:

var updateData = {status: 'closed', createdOn:  firebase.firestore.Timestamp.fromDate(new Date())};

Firebase function:

const data = req.body;
var updateData = data.updateData;  
db_fs.collection("bookings").doc(bookingDocId).update(updateData).then(async () => {console.log("Document successfully updated!");});

then it goes like below

So is there a way in angular/javascript to set the date such that it comes into firebase like shown in the first pic?

Make sure the time on your client is the same as the time on the server. — Luuk, Jun 05 '21 at 14:05
my question is not about the date value. I want the same date structure when date is set from angular — kpvsrkp, Jun 05 '21 at 18:06
But Google reveals that more people are using firebase and javascript, so this might help you: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/34718668/firebase-timestamp-to-date-and-time — Luuk, Jun 05 '21 at 19:00
Looking at the code snippet with angular, you're using the Timestamp function from firestore[1] it returns seconds and nanoseconds, so that explains why it's looking that way. Have you tried just putting `new Date()`[2] on the `createdOn` field?
