Record History Widget

The Record History widget allows you to view the history of any table record that has been loaded into a Record Placeholder in an app that is running in the Tulip Player.

It is commonly used to view the history of batches, materials and subassemblies.

You can view one record at a time within the widget.

A Tulip user will typically build an app called "Review and Approval" that is meant for another Tulip user from the quality department.

The member of the quality team will view the history record for a recently completed batch, and then sign their approval. This will complete the app and log their official approval.

So, this widget is commonly used in combination with these other features:

Since records can be modified in both the Player and the Tables admin interface, the Record History Widget includes events from both sources.

Viewing History of Deleted Records

If a user deletes a record, the history can be restored and viewed in the Record History Widget.

Let's say that record with ID "123" was deleted. A user must create a new record with ID "123" in the Table.

Then, they must load this record into a Record Placeholder in an app running in the Player. This will allow them to see the history of that record.
