Removing a column

[agiguere]

We have a business need to hide / remove a column from the default change history list page, is it something we can do by annotation or any other way?

thanks

@agiguere The "Altered table view" section in the README provides similar content, and you can customize the line item as needed: https://github.com/cap-js/change-tracking?tab=readme-ov-file#altered-table-view

Hi @agiguere,
you can also simply use the Fiori @UI.Hidden annotation to just hide a specific column like

using from '@cap-js/change-tracking';

annotate sap.changelog.ChangeView {
  createdBy @UI.Hidden
}

In case you want to hide a change log entry for specific column in one service but still have it visible in another, you can expose ChangeView within your service and add a where clause for the attribute that should be hidden. E.g. we track the columns title and status of the entity Incidents, but status change logs should only be displayed in the IncidentsAdminService:

using { sap.changelog as changelog } from '@cap-js/change-tracking';

service ProcessorService {
...
  entity ChangeView as select from changelog.ChangeView 
	where attribute != 'status'; // attribute that should be removed from list
}

annotate my.Incidents with {
  title @changelog;
  status @changelog : [status.descr];
};
