Audit field property changes

[fXs]

Hello, 

is there a quick way to track changes on the field properties in particular, who and when changed the mandatory flag as we have some issues with tracking down why new fields are made mandatory which causes issues with our Discovery,

kind regards and tansk in advance.

Fields are in the dictionary. Depending on the tables (looks like you are talking about CMDB tables) it can be that something has changed on a field on a higher table, getting down to a lower one. 

You can check in the 'sys_update_xml' table to see all changes. Issue with 'mandatory' changing is that this can come from ui policies, client scripts, dictionary entries, dictionary overrides, etc. There is no easy way to just check on that, except that they are all captured in the 'sys_update_xml' table and there you can see 'whodunnit'.

Hi,

You can open the dictionary, Right click on the header -> History -> List

In the field name there add the filter for Mandatory field
