Thereforeā„¢ Help

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.

info

1.This title corresponds to the 'History - Document name' setting of the Document Title configuration window in the Thereforeā„¢ Solution Designer.

2.It is not possible to view the history for a deleted document. This event is only visible as an entry when a document is restored from the recycle bin.

3.This field will contain the changed index data fields. The previous value will be displayed in parenthesis. If there was no previous value, this will be missing. Multiple keywords will be mentioned with a '+' before added values and a '-' before removed values. You may configure which fields are compared and shown via the 'History - Index data' setting of the Document Title configuration window in the Thereforeā„¢ Solution Designer.
