to determine it was implemented successfully work journal journal this is the method to communicate internally about a change other fields hidden from form and un used the below are fields that come off one of the tables changes extend from, which it does not use or have on the form some will have some behaviours tied to them (due to existing on the work table), but some will have nothing tied to it as a result, you can use them, but they will likely have no functionality tied to them note that there are other fields, but they are not recommended to be used due to the potential impact field
