OutcomeEvery time the onboarding owner on a deal changes, a timestamped note is logged on the deal showing who it moved from and to, so ownership history survives even after several handoffs.

When to use it, when not to

Use it

  • Use it when onboarding ownership changes often enough (parental leave, role changes, workload rebalancing) that "who had this before" becomes a real question during a review or an escalation.
  • Use it if you have Data Hub (or any hub tier that includes custom coded actions) available, this fiche needs the property history API to capture the previous value, which a native workflow action cannot read on its own.

Skip it

  • Do not use it if reassignment is rare in your team, a manual note on the rare occasion it happens is simpler than building and maintaining this workflow.
  • Do not use this as a substitute for a proper permissions or activity log if you need it for compliance purposes, this is a lightweight CRM-native trail, not an exported audit record.
