As an on-going maintenance task, we frequently have to modify procedures (add more lines, modify existing, disable lines, etc.)

It would be nice if (upon saving) the username/timestamp and action is recorded against each line (e.g. added, disabled, modified, etc). This can be used, in part as a version control mechanism.

There should then be a report to pull all changes easily for auditability.

    Hi Kassam,
    completely agree with your input. We could even extend this reasoning to all the Board objects: it could be very useful to automatize the tracking and let the developer know when and who modifed the considered object (procedure, cube, entity, …).

    Really useful indeed.
    It would be also nice to be able to enter a little comment for a whole procedure and have a tag like "unused" before deleting it
