Version: Windchill 12.1
Use Case: Good day. I am new to Windchill and I need help with a report that can give me the time and date of when the state changes for a document. For example when I create a new document it is a revision A.1 in a state of "in work". After a few days it is changed to a revision B.1 and changed to a state of "under review". I need a report that can give me the time and dates of all these event changes.

If you just want to report when the state changed, independent of a workflow, you can use the query builder to make something like this:
This will let you get a report that corresponds to the "Life Cycle History" table for the document. It's helpful to compare the query results with this table. You may need to customize your view to see it:
I usually include this criteria, to only get timestamps when the object entered the state:
There's a lot of help articles on using Query Builder. You'll need to add more criteria to get just the results you're interested in.
