# Supervisor Logs

<h2 id="bkmrk-overview">Purpose and when to use this record</h2>

Audit a supervisor-override attempt, including the user, screen, object, override type, and authorization result.

## At a glance

- **Identify it by:** **Supervisor**, **User**, **Initials Entered**, and **Screen**.

- **Check its business context:** **Supervisor**, **User**, and **Content Type**.

- **Why care:** Setup changes can alter navigation, alerts, and authorization for many users. Test the effect with the intended role or device before broad use.

## Before you begin

You need the Brisk permission for the action you are taking on supervisor logs. If a Create, Edit, or Delete control is absent, do not work around it with another user’s account; ask an administrator to review your role.

Use the Supervisor Logs list to find the correct record before opening or changing it. Compare **Supervisor**, **User**, **Initials Entered**, and **Screen**. Records with similar names or numbers can still belong to different **Supervisor**, **User**, and **Content Type**.

- The initial order emphasizes **Id**. Select a column heading when you need a different comparison.

Open the supervisor log whose **Supervisor**, **User**, **Initials Entered**, and **Screen** match the task. If it is missing, clear the list filters and recheck the identifying information shown on the screen rather than creating a replacement immediately.

## Fields and business rules

Brisk stores 9 user-relevant fields for this supervisor log, including 3 linked-record selections and 0 controlled-choice fields. Create and edit screens may hide calculated or workflow-managed values from this full reference.

| Field | Required | What it controls |
|---|---:|---|
| **Supervisor** | No | The supervisor associated with this supervisor log. |
| **User** | No | The user associated with this supervisor log. |

| **Authorized** | No | Whether the authorized option applies to this supervisor log. |
| **Override Type** | No | The override type recorded for this supervisor log. |

## What happens next

Use **Supervisor**, **User**, and **Content Type** to interpret this supervisor log. If it records a failure or exception, correct the source process and create a new successful event rather than rewriting the audit trail.

## Common mistakes and troubleshooting

- **The record will not save:** Recheck **Screen** and any message beside the field. A required related record may also be inactive or unavailable to your role.

- **The values look right but the result is wrong:** Open **Supervisor**, **User**, and **Content Type** from the detail page. Correct the specific relationship that is wrong instead of forcing a total or status to compensate for it.
