Specifying Item Activity for Items with a Specific Status

Horizon tracks items once they receive their first status until you check them in. You should specify that Horizon tracks the first status that you assign to newly created items. Once you set Horizon to track a specific status, when you create a new item record and assign it the trackable status, Horizon records activity for this item in the item_activity table in the database. This activity displays in the List Item Activity window. (For more information, see “Displaying Information about Trackable Items” in the “Tracking Item Activity” section of the “Item and Copy Records” chapter of the Cataloging User’s Guide.)
