Javascript Xrm.Page.data.save().then saves, but next save reverts changes.

Hi,

I have two custom fields in the task entity, Text and Duration.

When a user fills both fields, I need to save the form (if its in create mode) , create a external record and then clear the fields.

if we open an pre-existing task. it works fine. but if I create a new task, once the user hits save button. the "duration" comes back to the original number... ??

I'm sure my JavaScript talents are the culprit... I have no idea what I am doing wrong. (the text field works fine)

function Tasks_addduration()
{    
    if ((Xrm.Page.getAttribute('new_addtotaskdescription').getValue() != null) && (Xrm.Page.getAttribute('new_addtoduration').getValue() != null)) {         
        if (Xrm.Page.ui.getFormType()==1){
            Xrm.Page.data.save().then(Tasks_createtasklog ,  function(){alert("La creation du Task Log a échoué voir tony");});      
        } else  {  
            alert("no longer in create mode") ;        
            Xrm.Page.getAttribute('new_addtoduration').setValue(null);                                        
            Xrm.Page.getAttribute('new_addtotaskdescription').setValue(null);                    
            Xrm.Page.data.entity.save();
        }        
    }    

    function Tasks_createtasklog()
    {            
        alert("duration! Before Null:"   Xrm.Page.getAttribute('new_addtoduration').getValue().toString()) ;        
        Xrm.Page.getAttribute('new_addtoduration').setValue(null);                    
        Xrm.Page.getAttribute('new_addtotaskdescription').setValue(null);                    
        alert("after nulled")        
    }
}
