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.
