Record History and Dashboard Recent Activities

How to inspect field-by-field change history on individual records and view recent user activity on the vessel Dashboard.

  • Management
  • Captain & crew

While the Activities page tracks deleted records, creation and edit history for existing records is stored directly on each record, and recent user sign-in/access activity is shown on the vessel Dashboard.

Viewing change history on individual records

Most records in Nauticare maintain their own audit timeline showing when the record was created and every update made to it. Depending on the area of the app, you can find this timeline in a History tab, a history section inside the record's detail view or edit modal, or a dedicated history modal:

  • Maintenance & Tasks — Open a component, task schedule, or task detail modal to view its history timeline.
  • Inventory — Open an inventory item's details modal to view its history.
  • Documents & Controlled Documents — Open a vessel document, crew certificate, controlled document, or form template to view its history timeline.
  • Operations, SMS & Crew Forms — Open a form submission to view its submission and status history.
  • Finance & Purchasing — Open an expense, job, quote, vendor, or banking card modal to view its audit log.
  • Charters — Open a charter or its APA tab to view the history log.
  • Crew, Permits to Work & Risk Manager — View history logs on leave requests, work/rest hours (daily, monthly, and comments), user permissions, permits to work, and risk assessments.
  • Vessel Settings — View changes made to vessel general settings.

What a record's History timeline shows

Each entry in a record's timeline includes:

  • Who made the change — The user's name or email address, or System for automated actions. If a change was made through the chatbot, the actor is labelled <User> · via AI assistant.
  • Action — What occurred (for example, created, updated, status changed, or signed).
  • Date and time — When the change took place.
  • Field-level details — Below the header, the timeline lists the specific properties that changed:
    • Value updates are shown as <Field> changed from <Old value> to <New value> (an empty value is represented by ∅).
    • List additions and removals are shown as <Field> added: <Values> and <Field> removed: <Values>.

When a record has more history entries than are shown initially, click View the full history log at the bottom of the timeline to open the Full history log side panel, and click Close when finished.

Dashboard Recent activities widget

The vessel Dashboard includes a Recent activities card that tracks when crew members and company users were last active on the yacht:

  • The card displays up to five recent entries in the format User last activity: <email> along with the date and time.
  • When more than five users have recorded activity on the vessel, click View the full list of activities at the bottom of the card to open the Full list of activities side panel.
  • Click Close to dismiss the panel.
