The following information provides details on the fields and options available on the Log Viewer screen.

 

View By:

You can view the log entries in various modes- None, User, Module and Action. Select any option from the drop-down list in this field. If you choose User, you need to specify the User ID or name whose logged actions you want to view. If you choose Module, you need to select the Web Suite module name, say, Employee, Client, etc. from the drop-down list. 

 

If Action is selected, then you can view the log file on the basis of a specific action, say Delete. However, when None is selected, you can view all the logged details for all actions of all users on all modules.

 

Period:

The period for which you want to view the action log. You can choose Day, Week, Year, Custom, etc. That will determine the range of log entries that are displayed in the grid. The next field, Period Including, works in combination with this field to determine what range of log entries are displayed.

 

From and To:

You can select any date within the specified period for which you want to display the logged actions. Period Including defaults to the system date of your computer; however, you can select any date from the drop-down calendar. For example, if the period you have selected is Month and the Period Including is 05/18/2016, you will view the log details for the entire month of May 2016.

 

When the period selected is Custom, the Period Including field changes to From and To fields and accepts a range of dates.
