Activity log

The activity log records changes at your current school: conferences booked, rescheduled and cancelled, time slot edits, batch changes, translator assignments, settings changes and notification emails sent. Use it to answer “who changed this, and when?” Each entry shows when it happened, who did it, what happened and what it happened to, with a details view of the exact changes.

Administrators and office staff who need to audit conference activity.

The Event filter lists events by key with spaces instead of underscores (for example “reservation booked”), and only includes events that have been recorded at the school.

You can also see the history of a single time slot without opening the log. When editing a time slot, expand History at the bottom of the Edit time slot window. It shows the 20 most recent entries for that slot. See Time slots and batches.

Entries older than 365 days are deleted automatically by a daily scheduled task. See Scheduled tasks.
