For most of these displays, you can choose to display:

  • All saved versions of an object and when they were saved

  • Last saved version only

  • All change dates and times for all saved versions of an object

  • Last changed version only

The All Change Dates option shows you a history of changes to an object. For example, you might schedule a Robot Schedule job to print the Source Archive Report every day after the source file library is saved. Set the change limit at the previous day. The report then prints a list of source members that were changed for the current day only. You can print a change history for any object, library, or object type.
