'''Note:'''
* Track Changes on [[Standard Fields]] only records changes to data. It does not create an entry for the value stored the first time the record is saved. When the data is subsequently changed, the original value will be listed as the “Old Value.” The date the original value was set will be the record creation date/time.
* On [[Custom Fields]], Track Changes records the first data entry as well as each subsequent change.
* If you have a [[Shadow Application]], you must enable '''Track Changes''' on the fields in the Shadow Application if you wish to track changes initiated when records are accessed through the Shadow UTA.
* You can create [[reports]] on the custom field history using the [[Report_Recordsets#Field_and_Object_Log_Recordsets|Field and Object Log recordsets]].
<!--In the case of most [[Standard Field]]s (other than those within a [[UTA]]) the caption can only be changed on [[External]] Pages. -->
If you want the '''Caption''' to appear above the field instead of to the left of a custom field, select the "Label Above Field" option in the custom field settings.
