Activity Log

The Activity Log is a timeline of everything that has happened on your LOCAS account. Access it from Quick Links → Activity Log on any page.

What Gets Logged

Only meaningful, data-changing actions appear in the log — not page views:

CategoryEvents Tracked
ProcurementPlans created/updated, tenders declared/awarded, disclosures submitted
EmploymentReturns submitted, updated, approved
SuppliersSuppliers registered, linked, unlinked, updated
SDPProgrammes created/submitted, milestones completed
ComplianceReports generated, cases opened, responses submitted
UsersInvitations sent, roles changed, profiles updated
DocumentsFiles uploaded (reports, certificates, proof of payment)

How to Use It

  • Track submissions: Confirm when a document was submitted and by whom.
  • Audit trail: See the full history of changes to any record.
  • Troubleshooting: If something looks wrong, check the log to see what happened and when.
Tip

The Activity Log is useful when handing over to a new officer — they can review the full history of your company's submissions without needing a separate briefing.
