is done a record=transaction in the Activation Server 6 is generated to document the licensing request.
Transaction list view
The transaction list is grouped with 3 Tabs to deliver faster results

The start date depends on the setting in user profile (Default view - time period). If there are typically more than 10.000 transactions per month you should limit the result.
The list view can be filtered using search criteria like product, key / ID, transaction result etc.
