«Changelog» section#
The Changelog section is designed for tracking user actions within the system. It displays all changes made by users and administrators, allowing you to track which settings were changed, when, and by whom.
Knowing who made the changes helps clarify the purpose of those changes or identify potential data transfer/loss issues.
The general view of the «Changelog» section is shown in Figure 120.
Any user, regardless of their role, can view all records of changes made.
