History

The history provides a complete, chronological change log of all master data modifications for an employee. Each entry documents the date and time, who made the change, which field was affected, the old and new values, and the effective date.

Editing the Effective Date

You can retroactively adjust the effective date of a change by clicking on the entry in the history and modifying the date. This is useful when a salary increase was entered late, a location change was reported after the fact, or a working time change was agreed retroactively. Keep in mind that changing the effective date can affect dependent calculations such as vacation entitlements, payroll, working time calculations, and holiday regulations.

Filtering

The history can be filtered by time period, editor, field type, and category (e.g., personal data, payroll) to quickly find specific changes.
