The field can also be found in Learning Reports:

  • The Item Summary Data Audit report has a column for "Reviser"
  • Running a report against the Item tables (PA_CPNT or PH_CPNT) shows a REVISER field

Cause

This field is meant to contain the name of the person who most recently revised the learning item

Resolution

This field is a free text field that is manually populated:

  • In the Item Record, manually input the required value.
  • Or use the Item Connector to populate the field

Notes:

  • The field is not automatically populated when a user Revises an Item
  • The Last Updated User recorded at the time the Item was revised is the user captured when the Item is revised
  • This information is for administrative purposes only and cannot be viewed in the user interface

How to add the Reviser field to Items:

  1. Login to LMS Admin
  2. Navigate to System Admin > Configuration > Record Configuration
  3. Select "Item" from the drop down
  4. Find "Reviser" from the Available column
  5. Click "Add ->" to move it over
  6. Reviser will now appear on the Item Record under View All > Design
