Client Access Log for Servicing Personnel

Use the Client Access Log to review the users who have accessed specific activities and policies on a particular client, from the activity list and policy list screens. This logging can be helpful, for example, if a client calls your office with a question about their account and then calls back later in the day wanting to speak to the same employee. The log does not record specific changes to activities and policies, only the fact that they were accessed.

You must enable audit logging in System Settings to begin recording this information in your system.
