The Logger workspace lets administrators configure the log levels of the Tax Administration module. Adjusting log levels here is the recommended way to capture additional diagnostic information when investigating an issue, without restarting the software.
The following log levels are commonly available in the drop-down list. Levels are hierarchical — selecting a level includes all more severe levels as well.
Level
Description
OFF
Disable the logger entirely.
ERROR
Default for production loggers — only errors are recorded.
WARN
In addition to errors, log warnings about unusual but recoverable situations.
INFO
Standard operational events (start-up, configuration loaded).
DEBUG
Detailed diagnostic information; useful when reproducing a specific issue.
TRACE
Very fine-grained, high-volume tracing; use only short-term during investigation.
DEBUG and TRACE levels can produce a large volume of log data and may impact performance. Use them temporarily to investigate a specific problem and adjust the level afterwards.
The root logger acts as the fallback for every logger that does not have its own configuration. Changing the root level therefore changes the verbosity of the whole application.
