Invoice - Log

Invoice – Log

What it is about

The Log tab shows a detailed event history of all actions taken on the invoice. It automatically records every change, addition, and action — who did it, what was done, when, and to which item. The log is especially useful when you want to find out precisely what has been done to the invoice and by whom.

Getting started

1. Go to Invoices from the menu on the left-hand side.
2. Click the number of the invoice you want from the list.
3. Click the Log tab at the top of the invoice.

What you can do on this page

Browse log entries

Log entries are shown in a table in chronological order, newest first. Each entry shows:

• ID — the identifier of the log entry
• Time — when the action was performed
• Target ID — the item the action was directed at, as a link that you can click to go directly to the item
• User — who performed the action, as a link to the user’s details
• Description — a plain language description of what was done, for example adding an invoice line, updating the invoice, sending an email invoice, or applying a payment

Edit column visibility

From the hamburger menu in the top left corner of the table, you can select which columns are shown. Available columns are: ID, time, target ID, user, and description. Choose the columns you want and click OK.

Tips and notes

• The log is the most comprehensive way to track invoice history — it automatically records all actions, so the audit trail is always complete without separate recording.
• The Description column tells in plain language what has happened — at a glance, you can see for example when the invoice was created, when invoice lines were added, when the invoice was sent, and when a payment was applied.
• The log cannot be edited — entries are automatically created and permanent, which makes the log a reliable audit trail of the invoice history.
• The log complements the Timeline tab — the timeline shows business events clearly grouped, while the log shows all technical actions in detail.
