Invoice Change Log
The Invoice Change Log report enables you to generate a list of invoice changes. To use this report, you must select the Track Changes to Invoices option on the System tab of the System Control screen. With this option, GlobalWare tracks all changes made to invoice data by using GlobalWare functions. For details, see "Tracking Changes to Invoices and Associated Data" in the System Tab topic.
The log report lists the pay ID, the date and time the invoice was changed, the field that was changed, and its original and current value. For comment and segment changes, the report lists the line or segment number as well as the pay ID.
