View Change History

Collect and view change history details for several B2C Commerce Business Manager data objects. Use the Business Manager Administrations Change History module to search for and view change history data.

1. Click App Launcher , and then select Administration | Operations | Change History.
2. Select an object type or enter an object ID to restrict the search to objects of the specified type or ID.
   The list includes the object types that you enabled change history tracking for the corresponding module and their related object types. The list of types changes depending on the enabled settings.
3. Select the scope to restrict the search to objects existing within a limited context.
   For example, if you select Product as the object type and a specific catalog as the scope, the page returns changes for products within the context of the selected catalog. It omits changes for products related to price books, inventory lists, and other catalogs. By default, the scope is set to All, indicating that B2C Commerce returns changes across all contexts (or scopes).
4. Select an action to restrict the search further. High-level actions include:
   • All, which includes Object Creation, Object Deletion, and Object Update
   • Object Creation
   • Object Deletion
   • Object Update

   If an Object Update action can’t be further restricted, the value Attributes appears instead of the value Object Update.

5. Further restrict object updates depending on the object type, as shown in the following table:
