Field tracks
Purpose. Show the history of field values. For example, a task estimate was raised from 8 to 12 hours, or a release end date was moved. The page answers the questions “when did it change” and “who changed it”.
Do not confuse with ordinary tracks: field tracks are not about work time but about the history of values.
Who sees it. Roles with permission for the “Field tracks” page.
How to open. Menu Work → Field tracks.
What is on the screen
- Filters by project, task, field, user, and period.
- Date — when the value was recorded.
- Project, Task, Release — what the record refers to. Click to open the object in a new tab.
- Field — which field changed: “Estimate”, “Start”, “End”, “Target date”.
- Value — the new value. For an estimate these are minutes: 480 means 8 hours.
- Author — who made the change. Automatic records are marked “System”.
- The pencil and trash can on the right edit and delete a record.
Where records come from
| Source | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Field edit | A person changed the value in a card |
| Manual | The value was entered with the “Add value” button |
| Initial value | The record was created with the task, release, or project |
| Automation | The value was set by a workflow |
Which fields get into the history
Only fields with the Trackable checkbox enabled in the field constructor. For tasks these are numeric and yes/no fields, plus editable dates of tasks, releases, and projects. If the field you need does not appear in the table, check the checkbox.
What you can do
Enter a value manually
- Click Add value.
- Choose the object and the field and enter the value.
- Save.
Correct or delete a record
- Click the pencil or trash can in the row.
