Change Log Viewer
Available on: Desktop · Web · Phone
Navigate to User Access and click on "Change Log Viewer".
Change Log Viewer shows the changes recorded by the screens that keep a change log — who made each one, when, from which computer, and each value before and after. It only shows changes; it never alters anything. A user who is not an administrator needs rights to this menu in User Access.
What is recorded
So far the payroll and attendance screens record their changes:
Shift roster: Setup Week-off Patterns, Setup Payroll Shifts, Setup Shift Rotations, each employee's lines in Allocate Roster, every roster generation (from Allocate Roster or Generate Roster), each switch back to branch holidays, and the days changed in Roster Calendar (old and new value per day).
Organisation: Setup Designations, Setup Org Units, and each employee's placement in Assign Employees to Org.
Attendance app setup: Setup Attendance App Branches and their sites, Setup Attendance App Users, Setup Attendance Approval Rules, and every action in Attendance App HR Review.
The attendance app itself (shown with the screen Attendance App): employees' requests and cancellations, approvals and rejections, punch reviews, and automatic absent marks.
Saving a record without changing anything adds no entry. A change is saved only together with its log entry: if the entry cannot be written, the change is not saved either.
See the changes
Step 1: Choose the range
The list starts empty, with From set to 7 days ago and To to today.
Change From and To, or pick one kind of change under Document — (ALL) first, then the kinds already in the log, such as Roster Day Change or Employee Org Placement. Then press Refresh. Nothing is read until you press it.
Step 2: Read a change
The changes appear newest first, each with:
Date / Time, User, Module, Screen and Document,
Action — NEW, MODIFY, DELETE, GENERATE, SWITCH-BACK, DAY-CHANGE, APPROVE, REJECT or CANCEL,
the Record and Employee concerned, a Summary, and how many Fields changed,
Workstation — on the desktop the computer and its Windows user, on the web the web login — and Mode, WIN for the desktop or WEB for the web. Changes made on the web also show the network address of the user's computer (Client IP).
Click a change: Fields changed lists each field with its old and new value.
The list shows at most the newest 5,000 changes; narrow the dates or the document to see older ones.
Example — An employee's week-offs changed unexpectedly. HR opens Change Log Viewer, sets From to the start of the month, picks Roster Day Change under Document, and presses Refresh. The entry for that employee — summary 1 day(s) changed, 14/11/2026 — shows who made it, when and from which computer; Fields changed shows 14/11/2026 Sat going from WEEK-OFF to DAY SHIFT (BY HAND).

On any screen that records changes: the entry could not be saved, so the change was not saved either

On the web
The same screen is on the web. On a phone or a narrow tablet the list of changes and the list of fields sit one above the other; on a wider screen, side by side.
