Set Transaction History Settings Preference
The "Inventory Transaction History" for "Rooms," "Staff," and "Students" is a preference setting within the administrative view that affects each site's "Student Transaction Receipts," "Staff Transaction Receipts," and the "Inventory History" screens for students, staff, and rooms.
This district-wide preference displays inventory assigned to rooms/students/staff after a specified time and hides previous transaction history.
Assets with a status of “In Use,” “Lost,” or “Stolen” will continue to display regardless of time constraints. The default setting is set to "Show All" (no date limitations).

Set Approvals for Audits
This preference affects the reconciliation of tags during an audit, specifically "Misplaced" tags.
