View an order's change log to see the order's history. You can view who changed the order, when it was changed, and why. For example, if you see *COMPLETE* on an order change log, then the check availability routine looked a the order and logged that all the products on the generation are complete. Meaning the products are in stock and available. Since you cannot edit the log, it provides a secure audit trail for each order and each order generation.
To view changes made to an order:
From the File menu, select Change Log to display the Change Log Viewing window.
Notice the order number and shipment date at the bottom of the window. To view changes for a different ship date or invoice, from the File menu, select Change Ship Date / Invoice #.
