The change log in Microsoft Dynamics NAV logs changes that are made to data in the tables that you track. In the change log, entries are chronologically ordered and show changes that are made to the fields on the specified tables.

The change log collects all changes that are made to the table. For more information, see How to: Enable the Change Log.

Modifying How Changes Are Logged

The default behavior in Microsoft Dynamics NAV tracks all changes that are made to the data. The change log code is called from the OnDatabaseInsert function in codeunit 1, Application Management. This is different from Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2009, in which changes are only tracked when users make changes in the Microsoft Dynamics NAV user interface. If you want to revert to the Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2009 behavior, you can move the relevant code to an OnGlobalInsert function that you create based on Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2009.
