Data Selection for History Tracking Purposes

You choose the data items for which you want to track history before you initialize history and turnover tracking. Limiting the data items for which you track history makes it easier to locate information when you review history records. For example, you might choose to track history for data items such as Employment Status, Salary, and Pay Status; but not for items that rarely change, such as Gender and Tax ID.

If you do not choose data for history tracking purposes before you initialize, the system automatically tracks history for every item in the Employee Master Information table (F060116).

After initializing, you can deactivate certain Employee Master Information table data items if you do not want to track certain history items anymore.
