View event logs

Event logs contain a record of specific system- or workflow-related events for each isolated region. The information in event logs is useful for tracking workflow activity.

You can view the events that match the criteria you enter, or you can count the number of rows that your search will return. Note that because work items are constantly changing, the count might differ slightly from your actual results when you execute your search.

To view events

  1. In the Look For box in the search specification pane, select Events.
  2. In the In box, select Event Log.
  3. Select the specific event log in which to search by selecting one of the choices from the Select one drop-down list.
  4. To search using additional criteria such as a participant's name or a date range, and to set the order in which the results display, click the Criteria tab; and select the options you want.
  5. To choose the columns to display in the results, click the Results Options tab, and select the columns to include or exclude from the results pane.

    TIP Use New Search to reset the Criteria and Results Options tabs. The top portion of the search specification pane remains the same.

  6. To view the entries that match your criteria, click Find Now.

    To see how many entries match your criteria, click Search Count.
