Role Change History Report

This report shows a summary of the roles which have been altered during the specified time period, the date of the alteration, and the name of the change approver. This report is based on the existence of role archives, so it can only be run for installations that have enabled role archiving (set the doArchive variable to True in the selected role management workflow). The person whose name is associated with the creation of the RoleArchive object is listed as the approver on the report; this may be the person who made the change or may be a separate approver, depending on the approval mode configured in the system.

The detailed results of this report can be exported to a CSV or PDF file.
