Business role history
The Web Portal offers you the option to display business roles' historical data.
To do this, you have the following options:
Table 37: Historical data
Events |
This shows you all the events that affect the business role, either on a timeline or in a table (see Displaying my business roles' history). |
Status overview |
This shows you an overview of all assignments. It also shows how long each change was valid for. Use the status overview to track when changes were made and by whom. This way, you not only see the initial and current status but you also see all the steps in between (see Displaying the status overview of my business roles). |
Status comparison |
You can select a date and display all the changes made from then until now. This also shows you what the value of the property was at the selected point in time and what the value is now (see Comparing statuses of my business roles). |
