What is BD logging?
BD logging is the structured record of changes across your business: KPI updates, brief revisions, OKR progress, wiki edits, and more, in one workspace your leadership team shares. When performance moves, you can look back and pinpoint exactly what changed, when, and who was responsible.
What changes get logged?
Meaningful updates across Elevale log automatically, including KPI target changes, Strategic Direction brief revisions, OKR progress updates, wiki and SOP edits, and more. Each entry captures who changed what, when, and the before-and-after values.
Can I see who made each change?
Yes. Every log shows the owner, their role, and a timestamp. Directors get clear accountability on every update without chasing people for answers after the fact.
How does BD logging help when KPIs move?
When a metric shifts, you can trace back through the timeline of changes that preceded it, including target updates, brief revisions, and OKR adjustments, and pinpoint what likely drove the movement.
Does BD logging cover Strategic Direction and wiki changes?
Yes. Brief revisions, wiki edits, and SOP updates log alongside KPI and OKR changes in one shared timeline, so strategic context and operational updates stay connected.
Who should use BD logging?
Everyone working in Elevale contributes changes as they work. Directors and leadership use the timeline to review what shifted before results moved, in weekly check-ins, quarterly reviews, and board prep.
How does Otto use the change log?
Otto reads your full business change log alongside OKRs, KPIs, strategic direction, and wiki content. Ask what changed before a metric moved and get a grounded summary in seconds, without scrolling through hundreds of individual entries.
Can I filter the change log?
Yes. Use advanced filters to narrow the timeline by team member, change type, area (KPI, Brief, Wiki, OKR), and date range. Directors can focus on the updates that matter for a review without wading through the full history.
Can I review change history over time?
Yes. The full audit trail stays searchable and reviewable across any period. Leadership can compare what changed week to week, spot patterns, and walk into reviews with evidence instead of anecdotes.
