About Event Logging

The event log collects information about different operations that occur while a task instance runs. It can print information that you can analyze. For more information, see Modifying How Siebel CRM Logs Data During Testing.

The following table describes event logging for tasks and includes the following information:

  • Event types that are related to the task that Siebel CRM displays in the Event Configuration View.

  • Information about the events that Siebel CRM traces.

  • Information symbols that Siebel CRM displays in the log files to identify the events. Siebel Task shares some event symbols with Siebel Workflow.

  • The Log Level column indicates the minimum level that Siebel CRM uses to turn on tracing.

Caution: Setting a trace level higher than the default parameter affects performance. You must reset the trace level to the default parameter after you finish troubleshooting.
