Retrace Your Steps with Secure Event Log

November 5, 2014 Peter Frank

The Event Log is used to keep track of everything that happens in Church360° Ledger. This feature provides detailed records of all your activities in case you ever have a question of who did what when. You can access the Event Log under the Reports section of the navigation.

Every time you do anything, like enter a transaction, edit a transaction, print checks, or create or edit payees, the Event Log tracks these changes. These records are generated automatically and cannot be changed or removed.

Here is a quick summary of everything the Event Log tracks.
