Sometimes it is necessary to audit use of Centerbase. The PC Client offers three ways of doing this: Modification Log, Deletion Log and User Activity. The Modification log allows administrators to view who changed what and when. This list can be filtered by User and date range if necessary.

The Deletion Log tracks who deleted what record, when, and is also filterable by User and Date range. Both logs are simple, yet powerful, and rely on settings in the item manager. To track modifications, the checkbox for Track Changes must be checked on a per field basis. To track deletions, the setting to Track Delete must be checked on a per item basis. |
The User Activity page provides a filterable view of Centerbase usage in both overview and detailed views. Set the date range desired and click refresh to view all activity for that date range. The top pane of the results shows activity by type and user with total counts. In the below case, we see that John Forbes has created 10 Clients so far in the year 2017. Clicking on the client’s line item for John Forbes gives detailed list of every record (of type = Client) that John Forbes created in the date range.

Clicking the filter button on the right allows the user to filter the results by user(s) and item(s) as desired. This menu is not available unless the Filter button is clicked. |

Is it possible to export or filter the Modification log so you can see every modification based on user and entry type?
