Chapter 54. Company Activity History

Overview

The Company Activity History tool is used to create customized views and reports of company-related activity for troubleshooting or reporting purposes, including membership status changes, company data changes and notes added by administrators. Data recorded for each activity includes the activity's origin, when it occurred and the type of activity.

If you need to know which database fields were affected by the change, use the Company Activity Log tool.

If you want to access company data for a specific company or group of companies, use the Company Data Report tool.

Use the Company Activity History page to:

  • Create a real-time overview of changes to company data in the Kavi Members database.

  • Get information useful for troubleshooting.

  • Generate a downloadable or print-ready report of company activity.
