History

Administrators are able to set the logging for the site so that different events can be recorded across the application. It is recommended that Administrators capture all actions for Items (new, delete, edit, download, etc). Administrators also set a period at which the logs are trimmed. This is typically set around the 3 month period but may vary depending on logging requirements and how busy the application is.

Members that have access to the History of an Item (typically Item Owners, Members with Manage permissions and Administrators) will see a "History" option under the Options menu. Clicking on this option will take Members through to the History logs for the Item.

By default, the complete History of the selected Item is displayed. The History page however can be searched by specifying the following options and clicking on the View button:
