The Activity Log is a comprehensive audit trail feature that records changes made to your business data. Use it to monitor updates, investigate issues, and maintain accountability across your team.

What is the Activity Log?

The Activity Log is a built-in feature that automatically records changes made to your business data. Every time someone updates a customer profile, modifies a class schedule, processes a payment, or makes any other significant change, the system captures:

  • What changed - The specific field or setting that was modified
  • Old value vs. New value - What it was before and after the change
  • Who made the change - The user account that performed the action
  • When it happened - The exact date and time
  • Platform - Whether the change was made via web, iOS app, Android app, or system automation

This creates a complete audit trail that helps you understand what happened, when, and by whom.

How to access the Activity Log?

To view the Activity Log:

  • Log in to your admin dashboard
  • Click on Activity Log in the left-side menu
  • The Activity Log page will display recent changes with the newest entries at the top

How to use filters to find specific activities?

The Activity Log provides several filters to help you find specific entries:

Filter by Class

Select a specific class from the dropdown to see only activities related to that class, including schedule changes, reservations, and cancellations.

Filter by Customer

Choose a customer to view all activities associated with their account, such as profile updates, pass purchases, and reservations.

Filter by Pass

Select a pass to see activities related to that specific pass, including purchases, usage, and modifications.

Filter by Date Range

Set a start and end date to narrow down activities to a specific time period. This is helpful when investigating issues that occurred on particular dates.

Filter by Activity Type

Choose from predefined activity types to focus on specific actions:

  • Reservation - New bookings made
  • Reservation Cancellation - Cancelled bookings
  • Payment Verified - Confirmed payments
  • Payment Deleted - Removed payments

You can combine multiple filters to create more specific searches. Click the Refresh button to reload the list with your current filter settings.

Understanding log entry details

Each activity log entry displays the following information:

Activity Type

A descriptive label indicating what kind of change occurred (e.g., \"Reservation\", \"Pass Purchased\", \"Date Change\").

Old Value → New Value

Shows what the value was before the change and what it became after. For example, a class time change might show \"10:00 AM → 2:00 PM\".

Related Entity

The customer, class, pass, or other item that the change relates to. Click on the name to navigate directly to that record.

Changed By

The name and profile picture of the user who made the change. This helps identify who is responsible for specific updates.

Timestamp

The exact date and time when the change occurred, displayed in your business timezone.

Platform Icon

An icon indicating where the change was made:

  • Globe icon - Web browser
  • Apple icon - iOS app
  • Android icon - Android app
  • Server icon - System automation

Common use cases for the Activity Log

Here are some practical scenarios where the Activity Log can help:

Investigating customer complaints

If a customer reports that their pass was changed unexpectedly, you can filter by customer and pass to see exactly when the change occurred and who made it.

Auditing team actions

Review what changes your staff members have made, especially for sensitive operations like payment verifications or pass modifications.

Troubleshooting scheduling issues

When a class schedule seems incorrect, check the log to see if someone recently modified the date, time, or instructor assignment.

Tracking payment activities

Monitor payment verifications and deletions to ensure proper handling of financial transactions.

Reviewing recent system changes

After noticing unexpected behavior, use the date filter to review all activities from the past few days to identify potential causes.
