Record History
This opens up the Record History window displaying the user that originally created the workorder item, and date of creation; and the last user that modified this workorder item and date of modification.
Do note that these fields are not updated until the object has been saved and closed. For example, if you have just created a new workorder item, and have not yet selected Save & Exit – the creator and creation date will be blank until this is performed.
