Old Value

Use this field to specify the text that is to appear in the Old Value column of the Audit Log form when this action runs.

To construct the entry using an expression, click the button to the left of this field.

The contents of this field must use this syntax:

scalarExpr

where scalarExpr is a literal string or resolves to an expression that can be displayed as text. This expression can be Numeric, String, Date, or Typeless.

When you click OK to return to the Event Actions form, the system "wraps" this content within an OLD( ) parameter, which yields this final syntax:

OLD( scalarExpr )

Note:  If scalarExpr is a literal string value, the system automatically encloses it in double quotation marks when returning it to the Event Actions form. If scalarExpr is anything else, the system does not enclose it in quotation marks.
