The LHR Change History table is off by default and must be enabled in the WorldShare Record Manager panel. Enabling it will cause the LHR Change History to appear throughout Record Manager, Circulation, and Acquisitions.
Note:
- It may take up to 10 minutes for the LHR updates to be reflected in the LHR Change History table.
- If a LHR has a large change history with over 100 edits, the most recent history will be displayed along with the message: "Due to the size of the history changes for this record, we will only display the last changes that were made to the record."
