Can a notification show WHICH property was changed?

Patrick Hughes

Hello,

We have set-up a notification to alert users when a form was changed (a non-state change).

The form is changed multiple times before it is submitted, and each change generates a notification to specific users.

Those users are now asking if it's possible to know which field was changed.

Checking the version history, while useful, entails a number of steps and of course the change should be obvious.

Is it possible to show in the notification which field was changed?

Or is there another solution for such cases?

Thanks!

    For VAF, I remember a function called "HasChanges". I had similar scenerio back in my consulting days and as VAF was relatively new at that point and I wanted to get into it, I wrote a VAF that check specific property definitions in an object and send mail to specific people if targeted property/properties has changed.

    So, not a built-in function, as far as I know not available in VBScript like I described ("HasChanges" is not present in VBScript) however, you can access this information via VAF.
