Access to view all in History Log

We’re on APPS10 UP6.   I’ve configured the IFS History Log to show changes to a specific field on the inventory Part.  The logging works and as an administrator I can see all changes,  but when a user on the Inventory Part does View - Record History  they can only see the changes they made not the field changes that another user made.  To me that defeats the purpose of the Record History - to see who changed a field and to what value.  If I set system Privilege = Administrator in their Role, then they can see changes from all users.  But we don’t want to give Administrator Access to any users.   

Is this by design or is there a setting in the Roles that allow this action without setting as Administrator?   I’ve tried to give access through the role but can’t get it to work.

As a technical work-around, if you grant SELECT on history_log_tab to IFSINFO, you can then create an IAL with your own row-level security.

history_log (view) is defined as you describe @mpillunde 

So you have to be administrator or the user who made the change to see it.

I guess it is intended as an administrator function, but if you need more access then @durette ‘s suggestion is the way to go

What is the proposed solution for the future? I heard, that IFS already announced that IAL functionality will be deprecated in the future.

I propose to have a system parameter to have “adminstrator” limitation active or not active, to allow to decide per IFS instance .
