Documentation for Who Made Changes to Item Master File

["aldg" <aldg@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Mapics ML:

One of my fellow employees today showed me an Inventory Item (Type 4, 
Purchased) that had an incorrect cost valuation in the Unit Item Default Cost 
field.  Using File Maintenance in Inventory Management, I corrected the costing 
and made things right?

When the same employee asked me for documentation as to who changed the record 
and put the incorrect cost there in the first place, I couldn't answer his 
question.

I went to the Mapics Support and found that with an appropriate Tailoring 
Question, an "Item Master Maintenance Before/After Audit 
Report" (AMVE5) would be generated after any maintenance.  I checked our 
Tailoring and we didn't opt for this.

Besides the above report, are there other ways to determine which work 
station/employee made the above change to a field in Item Master file?  (I 
realize that only certain workstations on our network have such authority but 
even so, the transaction could have been done by one of several individuals.)  

Is there a "transaction history" file in Mapics that stores this type of 
information?

I look forward to your comments and suggestions.

Regards.......
