You can collect and then view change history details for several Business Manager data objects.

Use the Business Manager Administrations Change History module to search for and view change history data.

  1. Select Administration > Operations > Change History.
  2. Select an object type or enter an object ID to restrict the search to objects of the specified type or ID.
    Object types appear in this list only if you enable change history tracking for the corresponding module. The list of types changes depending on the enabled settings.
  3. Select the scope to restrict the search to objects existing within a limited context.
    For example, if you select Product as the object type, and you select a specific catalog as the scope, Salesforce B2C Commerce returns changes only for products within the context of the selected catalog, omitting changes for products as they relate to price books, inventory lists, and other catalogs. By default, the scope is set to All, indicating that B2C Commerce returns changes across all contexts (or scopes).
  4. Select an action to further restrict the search. There are several high-level actions:
    • All (which includes Object Creation, Object Deletion, and Object Update)
    • Object Creation
    • Object Deletion
    • Object Update

    If an Object Update action can't be further restricted, the value 'Attributes' appears instead of the value 'Object Update.'

  5. You can further restrict object updates depending on the object type, as shown in the following table:
