System Package Journal Entries

OpenRMF ^® Professional has a journaling feature that began in version 11 that records a ledger of events that have happened for certain areas of the application. The System Package Journal is available under the System Package Dashboard ... menu. It records things created, deleted, updated, or downloaded for various areas of a system package.

There is a separate journal feature for high level administration features as well.
