Log to display last edited time and by whom the item was created and / or edited

Since the backend is usually managed by multiple employees in a company, it would be nice that when an item is edited in the back end, the system displays when and who created or edited the item. When I custom made an ASP cart a while back, I added a log table that displayed such information for items such as products, categories, orders, etc...

nopCommerce does offer "Activity Log" out of the box that you can enable to keep a track of all back-end activities.

There's also a plugin that adds some more granular activity logging. It doesn't seem to be in the nop marketplace for some reason but there's post with a link to the dev's site: https://www.nopcommerce.com/boards/t/31112/advanced-activity-log.aspx

Thank you. I see the activity log options have moved under customers! I will study it a little bit more but at first glance, I see no option from the products or orders pages to see this data. It would actually be great to add the logs in the product page as the last tab.

Is there a reason why the plugin does not show who did the change? I cannot tell you how important that is. I developed a custom e-commerce system for an art company and they edited their products and orders quite frequently. I did not log the user by name, but rather by internal employee number ex: 105684. Only the super admin can see who did what. Other things like type of change, ip, date, time etc.. were logged for all back end users to see.

Sorry, it's not my plugin so I don't know, you might be better off directing questions to the plugin's developer in that post.
