1) MDF Version History: No

=> If this option is selected, or no selection is made, history records are not stored for any operation and hence audit cannot be captured.

2) MDF Version History: Delete History

=> If this option is selected, only the history records from the delete operation of that object type are available in internal history or audit tables. The data deleted by a full purge import and translatable fields are also included.

3) MDF Version History: Complete History (Recommended)

=> If this option is selected, the history records from the create, insert, update, or delete operation of that object type is available in internal history or audit tables. The data deleted by a full purge import and translatable fields are also included.
