The window contains a list of logged objects. Click the [Add] button, to enable the logging for a certain object and set up the list of logged columns. Use the [Edit] button to change the list of logged columns in the logged object. The [Delete] button is used to disable logging for the selected object.

Note

All changes in the logged object that were made before the logging was disabled are saved in database. After the logging is enabled again, the tracking of changes in the logged object will be resumed.

When you click the [Add] or [Edit] button, the change log object setup card will open (Fig. 2).

Use the [Object] field to specify the section, detail or other system object for which you want to track the history of changes. Select the needed object from the drop-down list. This is a required field.

The [All fields] area displays a list of all columns in the selected object. For example, if the “Contact” object was selected, then this area will display the following columns: [Full name], [Business phone], [Job responsibility], etc.

The [Logged columns] area contains a list of columns for which the logging will be enabled.
