Lorne,
Please allow me to more clearly express my suggestion with regard to logging user edits to inventory item fields.
I was specificaly refering to logging only edits from IN-B and or MRP parameters edititable from MR-? (sorry, I'm at home and I can't remember the menu item!
)
This would require that the INVTXN file be opened and that a new transaction type be defined for a "comment" or "log" type of transaction. The Quantity field would not be processed on this type of transaction, nor would the cost be processed. Instead, for example, those two fields could reflect a before / after value of a numeric field. The existing Description string could be populated with a user name, and date. This would not change the schema of the INVTXN file.
I in no way ment to imply that EVERY field that gets changed by ANY application be logged.
Of course, the Print Inventory Transactions, consolidate Inventory Transactions, (and probably a few others), would need to understand this record type and deal with it appropriately.
This is how I interpreted pens origonal post on this subject.
