See who changed Financial Setup, when, and what changed.

​
Business Value

  • Records every change to settings that control GL periods.
  • Shows the old value and the new value side by side.
  • Names the user who made each change.
  • Keeps each property’s history separate.

​
Use Cases

  • A financial controller finds who made last month’s GL period unrestricted.
  • An auditor checks when the financial year start month was changed.
  • A chief accountant confirms a setting was put back after the year-end close.

​
How It Works

Financial Setup controls settings for every financial period:
  • The month the financial year starts.
  • The Hijri financial year start.
  • Ability to Edit GL Period: Restricted or Unrestricted.
  • The months that are unrestricted.
Before, there was no record of who changed these settings, or when.

​
The History Button

Financial Setup now has a History button. It works like the History button on other Back Office screens.

​
What the History Shows

  • The newest change comes first.
  • The list has pages.
  • Each save makes one entry. It lists only the fields that changed.
  • Each change reads: field changed from old value to new value.
  • Months show as names, not numbers.
For example: Ability to Edit GL Period changed from Restricted to Unrestricted.

​
Who Can See It

  • Only users who can open Financial Setup can see its history.
  • Each property sees its own history only.
