The history of an item

See every change to a requirement or tracker item — what changed, from what to what, who made it and when — including the changes the AI made.

Updated 19 October 2026

Who this is for: business analysts.

Every change to an item is recorded: the field, the value before and after, who made the change, and when. Changes that came from accepting an AI proposal are marked, so you can always tell a person's edit from the AI's.

Read an item's history

  1. Open the requirement, risk or question.
  2. Scroll to the bottom and open History. The number beside it is how many changes there are.
  3. Read the entries, newest first, grouped under Today, Yesterday and earlier dates.
  4. Point at a time such as 3h ago to see the exact date and time.
  5. Choose Show more to load older changes.
A requirement's History section open, showing changes grouped under Today, each with the person's name and the field's value before and after.
Fictional demonstration project. All names and details are invented and do not represent any real organisation, including any that shares a name with it.

What an entry shows

  • Who made the change: a person’s name, System for an automatic change, or Unknown user for someone no longer in the company. An AI badge marks a change that came from an AI proposal.
  • What changed, as the field name followed by the old value, an arrow, and the new value. A dash means the field was empty.
  • Events such as “created this item”, “added a link”, “removed a link” and “added a comment”.

Long values are shortened; choose Show full value to read all of it.

Good to know

  • Nobody can edit an item’s history.
  • Sign-offs keep their own record under Approvals on the same item. See Request and give sign-off.

  • Review what the AI proposes

    What "AI proposes, you decide" means in practice — read each proposal and its evidence, edit it or ask the AI to change it, then accept or discard.

  • Link items and follow the trace

    Link a requirement to a risk, a scope line or another requirement by searching for it, and see an item's parents, children and links in the side panel.
