Vireo Log Tab 

The Log tab in Vireo lists every action taken on any ETD record within the system.

On the log tab, users can:

  • Filter the log by certain criteria to limit what appears

  • Sort the log by column (by clicking on the column header)

  • Search the list using the search box

  • Go to an ETD record (View tab) by clicking on the fields within the desired row/record.

Using Filters 

Administrative users can utilize filtering functionality in Vireo to customize the list of ETDs they view on the Log tab. Adding filters can narrow the list so that it includes only those with certain defined characteristics (e.g. Active ETDs from the December 2009 graduation semester).

Filter options are found on the left side of the screen under “Filter Further By.”

The filter tools on the Log Tab work in the same way as they do on the List Tab. You may refer to the Using Filters article (which deals specifically with List Tab filters) for a more detailed explanation of filters that will also help you with the Log Tab.

Sorting Records 

Users can sort the list by any of the list’s columns by clicking on the column header. You can sort by one column at a time (simple sorting).

Viewing the Action Log for a Single Record 

To view the Log for one specific ETD record, you will need to begin from the View Tab for that record.

The View Tab contains a partial Action Log with the most recent events recorded for that record.

To see the full list of actions, click on the MORE link at the bottom left of the Action Log section. That link will take you to the Log Tab for this specific record. You will see an ID filter in place in the “Now Filtering By” section.

If you wish to return to the full Action Log (containing all ETD records), delete the ID filter by clicking on the “x” next to the filter. Or click CLEAR CURRENT FILTER.

Adding/Removing Columns 

You can determine which columns appear in the List using the User Preferences found in the settings tab. Column names with the checkbox selected will appear.

Changing the number of records displayed 

You can change the number of records that appear per page of the List using the User Preferences found in the settings tab.
