The Thereforeā¢ Navigator provides a log of events relating to a Document, Case or Workflow Instance in chronological order. These allow the user to keep detailed record of activity related to those items.
All three Histories can be accessed through the Thereforeā¢ Navigator by right-clicking an item (Workflow Instance, Case or Document) from the hit-list and selecting 'History...' from the context menu. This will open a separate window called History. Alternatively, the user can see a document or case's history by opening them with the Thereforeā¢ Viewer. It will be visible as a tab underneath the document. Any time a new event is recorded, it will be entered as a line into the history table, with each column providing further information to the user.
