Overview

In Salesforce, it often happens that when field values get changed, you’re left wondering what the previous value was, when someone updated it, or who specifically changed it. With Field History Tracking, the field history data is retained, giving you a logged list of this important data.

Field Limit Per Object

Salesforce allows you to track up to 20 fields per object (both standard or custom objects). By enabling Field History Tracking, you will see who made the change, the date it was updated, and the previous value of the field.
