Tracking Custom Property Changes in History Table

I am looking for a way to track changes made to a custom property that we've added to inventory devices. The Compliance History table and the history tab on the device is not logging this information. Is there a way to add that property to be tracked?

Thanks,

Dan

    While changes to custom property values on some record types (such as assets, contracts, and some others) are recorded in history, unfortunately changes to custom property values on inventory device records are not tracked in current releases.

  • Hello @dbeckner  

    I am currently having a custom ticket box on the Asset, so if I tick the box and observe the ComplianceHistory tab by using the following  'rough' query, It seems helps to find out the Custom property Change activities. 

    SELECT TOP 1000 * FROM ComplianceHistory

     

    WHERE FieldName like 'CustomAsset%'

     

    AND ISNULL(OldValue,'') <> ISNULL(NEWValue,'')

     

    ORDER BY 1 DESC

    Note, depending on the type of 'object' the custom property built on, the FieldName can be varied , in my case my custom property is on Asset, so the fieldname is 'CustomAsset' + 'CustomProperty' Name....You will need to adjust to yours accordingly. 

    HTH

    Cheers

    • @Big_Kev  How are you getting the system to track the change in that field? I can update the field (in my case its a dropdown menu) but the history table is not tracking any changes I am making.
