History Tracking and Reporting
The History related list of a detail page tracks changes to the object. Any time a user modifies any of the fields whose history is set to be tracked, a new entry is added to the appropriate History related list. All entries include the date, time, nature of the change, and who made the change. Click the help icon in the History related list section for information about setting up which fields are tracked.
