Viewing Changes to Orders

View an order's change log to see the order's history. You can view who changed the order, when it was changed, and why. Because you cannot edit the log, it provides a secure audit trail for each order and each order generation.

To view changes made to an order:

  1. Create or open an order and display the order's Header screen.

  2. Use the Chg Log hot key to display the Change Log Viewing screen.

  3. Review the following fields, as needed, for each transaction:
