Use the change log to gain an overview of changes in most windows of SAP Business One. By tracking the change log, your auditors can more easily verify and audit G/L entries.

Each time you update, for example, tax groups, withholding tax, house banks, freight, credit card, authorizations, employee master data, sales, purchasing documents, production orders, or charts of accounts, the application records the change and can show it as required in the Change Log window.

To access the change log, open a window in SAP Business One, make changes if necessary, and then (with the window still open) choose   Tools   Change Log...  .

To display the log of a certain change instance, in the Change Log window, double-click the line of the instance. The ... History Instance #... window appears. The window displays the read-only details of the change instance.
