What does Actorly record for each kind of record?

Record is a kind of record in your store. History is whether it keeps the changes. Old and new is whether it keeps the value before and after. Who is whether it can say who made the change. Restore is the fields it can put back.

Why can Actorly not show some of this?

InventoryShopify's limit Shopify's activity log has no entry for this kind of record, so Shopify gives no app a way to learn who changed it.Actorly's choice Actorly does not ask Shopify for permission to change stock. Stock moves for real reasons between a change and a merchant's review, so writing an old quantity back could create a false stock position.
