Does COLMAP continuously update all columns listed?

Hi,
I'm trying to perform a limited amount of data transformation using goldengate.  And had a couple of questions.
Here's the basic idea

Source Table foo1 is
ID
Employee_name
salary

Destination Table Foo1 is
ID
insert_date  -- the date the record was replicated over
employeename
salary
reviewed -- a boolean type value
========
REPLICAT tgt_DB
...
MAP SOURCE.FOO1, TARGET DEST.FOO1, COLMAP (USEDEFAULTS,
  Employee_name= employeename,
  Insert_date = @DATENOW(),
  reviewed="N");

Will subsequent updates cause the INSERT_DATE column to update with the current time?  If so how can I prevent this from happening?  I've looked at FILTER as a possible solution.  If that seems right could I see an example of that please?

Howdy, Stranger!
