Log of User Activity
The Log of User Activity records the date, time, and user name associated with certain changes made in the program. This allows you to see what changes have been made in the program. If the program administrator doesn't require a user name to enter the program, the name displays as "PDS User".
On the Administration tab, click View User Log. To reorder the log, use the Order By drop-down list. To print a report of activity, click Log Report.
