Transaction Log Levels#

Automate users with access to the data/Settings model or view/DataSettings can manage global transaction logging levels. These logging messages display below a selected transaction on the Transactions page, and have no impact on the transaction or sub-transaction action or detail information.

Log levels are cumulative, that is, more detailed levels include all details from less detailed levels.

The table describes the transaction log levels and their severity values:

Level

  • Severity values are referenced (from value - to value) in transaction details when the log level is changed on this setting or changed by lower level administrators from the System Settings menu. See: Settings.

  • If a transaction fails, the Log block includes all entries with severity values larger than that of the default or selected level of logging.

  • The log levels of data syncs can be set to override these global levels.

    The transaction log level used for data sync and its immediate sub-transactions is by default set to Warning when it is not set.

    For details, refer to Create a Custom Data Sync

Transaction log levels are configurable based on your needs, for example, set to Verbose to include greater details for immediate troubleshooting and customization work:

  1. Toggle the log level to Verbose.

  2. Reproduce the issue causing the problem.

  3. Export the logs and forward them to VOSS support.

  4. Toggle the log level back to Info.

Note

When setting transaction log level to Verbose or Debug, notes and warnings are shown to remind admins that the retention period of such logs is due to their increased size, which consequently reduces the date range of available logs for troubleshooting.
