Entity History

Entity History shows you a complete change log for a single record -- every field that was added, modified, or deleted, by whom, and at what time. It is different from the Audit Trail, which tracks financial GL postings. Entity History tracks data changes to master and transactional records such as Customers, Vendors, Products, and countries.

Where to find it

Entity History is accessed from a record's action menu, not from a standalone menu item. Look for View history in the row action menu (the three-dot overflow menu) on any list page that supports it -- for example, the Countries list. The URL pattern is /Accounting/history/{EntityType}/{EntityId}.

What you see

The page uses a two-panel layout:

Left panel -- Activity Timeline

A chronological list of every change event for this record, newest first. Each timeline entry shows:

Click any timeline entry to load its details in the right panel.

Right panel -- Change Detail

A field-by-field diff for the selected event:

Summary strip

At the top of the page you can see at a glance:

• Versions -- total number of recorded change events
• Created -- date of the earliest recorded event
• Last Change -- date and time of the most recent event
• Main Contributor -- the user who made the most changes to this record

Tips

• Use Print History or Export CSV (from the Reports button) to save or share the change log.
• Entity History records data changes. For GL-level financial activity on a document, use the Audit Trail instead.
