    Por Que e Quando Desempenhar Esta Tarefa

    The variable action logger displays the chronology of actions that happen on all variables of a catalog item before it is submitted. These actions can happen due to catalog client scripts, catalog UI policies, or catalog data lookups. This client-side logger does not store any data in the database. Also, the information displayed is applicable only while you work on the catalog form.

    1. Navigate to All > Service Catalog > Catalog Administration > Enable Variable Action Logger.

      The following information is displayed in the Variable Action Logger window:
      • Order in which scripts and actions are executed. When a new action is triggered from an existing action, the order of the new action is tracked at a sublevel under the order of the existing action. For example, the order of a new action triggered from step 1.2 is 1.2.1.
      • Source of the action taken on a variable and the variable name.
