I would imagine the difficulty with this is that it is a very resource intensive change. With the two modules currently tracked (Purchasing and Job) the Change_History table is already likely the largest table in your database by orders of magnitude. I would imagine some sort of redesign of how this is handled would be required. A method for admins to purge history meeting chosen criteria would be helpful as well.
Tracking the routing changes currently generates the most records for us and is arguably the least important. Perhaps a poll of users as to what modules and fields are the most appropriate to track would get this project started with some direction.
When is this going to be updated? It's been 7 years with no implementation, only minimal changes are tracked. JB not keeping up with Customer and industry standards for record keeping.
Need to find out who changed the status of a material, as well as which user scheduled a particular job for Production. When will this request be implemented??
How long does it take for something that is likely to implement status to be added to the software? I see this idea was submitted in 2017 and we are in mid 2022 and still no update on when this might get added? There are many others that are in the same boat. Is the Ideas board still a place for feature request or has this been put on the back burner by ECi?
I agree with the previous comment. I came from a Vantage/Epicor environment that tracks history and can't believe JobBoss doesn't have this. I have an instance where someone made a change to Inventory. This was a big issue and we have no way of telling who made the change.
We really need the ability to see a tracker of date and user that made transactions in Job Boss. Entering or updating Orders, PO's Jobs, Inventory, etc. This feature has been available with Vantage/Epicor for quite a few years, and really should be a feature in any system like this.
it would also be important to for all transactions done in job boss to be identified by name of the person who initiated that transaction. Great for traceability.

Need to see who receives Items
need to track Sales Order changes including who when with a notes option.
I am for this option!!!

I too agree that at least the SO should have the same history for Header and Detail changes that exists for the Job Entry and PO history.
Definitely would welcome a complete history on all changes. Much needed.

How come we don't have this for a Sales Order like we have in the Jobs & PO module. NEEDED!!!!!!
This is something our customer ask frequently since a long time this could be great !
we should also have an option on sorting the out put

Thank you
Please log all transactions ... for risk analysis it is becoming critical.
Would be nice to have the ability to see who received and/or invoiced items on a PO.
Yes. This is important for quality control.
Yes everything should be logged!!!!! It would be great to know who deleted, picked, transferred, ect.
JobBOSS Dev - take a look at how uniPoint does this. It works great and it's everywhere. You can even go back to see who deleted something....
