Reader Log
The Reader Log feature within the Universal Tracking Application is used to track any user that views or edits a Level 1, Level 2 or Level 3 record. How long they viewed/edited the record is also recorded. The report uses the server time, in 30 second increments.
This feature is required in regulated sectors such as Medical Case Management where the information is private and should not be viewed without a specific purpose.
Two steps are required to activate this functionality;
- 1) Enable the option at each level
- 2) Provide the relevant Roles with permission to see these logs.
