Audit Log¶
The Audit Log records who changed what and when across WFM's main configuration and scheduling objects. Use it to review the history of changes, look into an unexpected edit, or export a change report.
Access is restricted to Admin and System Admin users. Other roles (including HR and Planner) do not see the menu item and cannot open the page.
Open it from Audit Log in the left sidebar.
What is recorded¶
Each entry captures a single change to one object:
- Time - When the change happened.
- User - Who made the change, or System for automated changes.
- Model - The type of object that changed: Schedule, Shift template, Need, Workplace, or Contract (including their sub-records, such as a contract's hour limits or a need's items).
- Object - The name of the specific object (or its internal id if it has no name).
- Action - Created, Updated, or Deleted.
Filter the log¶
The filter bar above the table narrows down what you see. By default it shows changes from Today.
- Time - Pick a preset (Today, Yesterday, This week, This month) or choose Custom and set the From / To date and time.
- User - Show only changes made by a specific user.
- Advanced filter - Click Advanced filter to also filter by Model and Action.
- Click Search to apply, or Clear to reset to the default (Today).
The search box above the table matches the object name, its internal id, and the user's name. To filter by Model or Action, use the Advanced filter rather than the search box.
View change detail¶
Click the eye icon in the Actions column to open the detail panel. It repeats the entry's metadata (Time, User, Model, Object, Action) and shows a Changes table with one row per changed field:
- Field - The field that changed.
- Before - Its value before the change (a dash
âif it was empty). - After - Its value after the change.
Note
Field names in the Changes table are the internal database field names, so they may not exactly match the labels shown in the WFM forms.
Export¶
Click Export in the top-right corner and choose Export CSV or Export Excel. The export includes every entry matching the current search and filters, not just the page you are viewing.
Note
Changes made automatically by Smart Schedule (the scheduling solver) are not recorded in the audit log. Only manual edits and configuration changes are tracked.
