Data item attributes

Data item attributes determine whether a history record is created when changes are made to data items on Employee (HR11.1), Employee Deduction (PR14.1), Job Code (HR06.1), Supervisor (HR07.1), and Applicant (PA31.1).

Example

Two Rivers Company wants to make sure that if there is a change made to the Supervisor field on the Employee (HR11.1) record, the change is documented in terms of who made the change, what the value was before the change, and what it was changed to. Therefore, they put an X in the History field for the Supervisor data item on Data Item Attributes.
