Working in an "Issue History" Subtab

The edit form of an AccuWork issue record always includes a subtab named Issue History, which is maintained automatically by AccuWork. This subtab shows, on a field-by-field basis, how the issue record has changed over time.

You can use this subtab to view past "versions" of the issue record.

The Issue History subtab contains a table, each row of which shows how one field was changed (or initially created) by a particular Save of the issue record.

The table contains these columns:

Working in an "Issue History" Subtab

If you double-click any row of the Issue History table, AccuWork opens a read-only edit form, showing the state of the issue record at the time of that particular Save. (Exception: the issue record's change package does not participate in this feature.)
