Security Labels Change History Table

The Security Labels Change History table provides historical tracking of changes made to security label values for an object. It displays a list of security label values that were changed for an object and tracked details such as the date and time of change, and the user who performed the changes.

The Security Labels Change History table displays only the changed values. The unchanged values are represented by a dash (-).

For objects that are created after Windchill 11.1 F000, the changes made to security label values are tracked since the object creation time. The table will have at least one row that displays security label values which were assigned during creation of the object.

For objects that were created prior to Windchill 11.1 F000, the values are blank. When the security label values for these objects are specified or changed for the first time, the table displays two rows per object. The first row displays the security label values that were configured prior to Windchill 11.1 F000 and the second row displays the new security label values. If the object had no values prior to Windchill 11.1 F000, by default, the values will be displayed as Null. The cells for Modified by and Modified on columns in the first row for such objects will be blank, indicating that these objects existed before the history tracking feature was implemented.

When an object is iterated, the security label values are copied from the previous iteration but the history is tracked from the time the new iteration was created.

For upgraded objects, there will be no security label values for the base iteration by default. It is only when an upgraded object is iterated, that the history is tracked and a security label record is created and displayed for the new iteration. When updating security label values for such objects, if the Apply security label changes to all versions of the edited objects checkbox is selected, the security label value is copied to all the versions of the object, creating a new security label change record for each iteration.

The security labels set on an object can be viewed and changed by launching the Edit Security Labels window from the actions list for the object. For more information on viewing current values of security labels, see Viewing and Setting Security Labels on Existing Objects.

The deleted security labels appear in the customized views with the term <deleted> appended to their names. The values under a deleted security label column also appear with the term <deleted> appended to it. If you edit a customized view after deleting a security label, the deleted security label does not appear in the Available Columns or Selected Columns fields. The deleted security label columns also disappear from the table after you finish editing the customized view.

The default columns for this table are Modified by and Modified on. You can customize the table to add the required columns as per business requirement. For more information, see Customizing Table Views.
