| Archive Time | The date and time that this Log File was archived. |
| Name | The name of the Task which has been run. |

| Status | An icon will indicate if the stream sets generated by the Analysis run were rolled back from the Stream Sets tab in the system console. See below for details. |
| Tasks | The number of individual Tasks that were run as part of this Analysis run. |
| Messages | The total number of messages in the Log File. |

If a Log File is selected from the list with a right click, the Show Log Details option can be chosen from the context menu to bring up the log file.
If the stream sets generated by an analysis run were rolled back and the analysis repeated (see under Stream Sets form below), the log file entry will have a button 
in the Status field. Pressing this button will bring up the new log file that was produced when the Analysis run was redone.
If the stream sets generated by an analysis run were rolled back, the log file entry will have a button
in the Status field. Pressing this button will bring up the log file for the rollback.

Tab: Stream Sets
The Stream Sets for the currently selected log file.
If the Stream Sets generated by an Analysis run produced a number of Cycles, and one or more Cycle was rolled back and repeated, then Status field will contain a symbol to indicate whether:
this Stream Set was originally generated as part of this Analysis run, but has been moved forward into the log for the Analysis to generate those Stream Sets which were rolled back and repeated.
this Stream Set was moved forward into this log from the original Analysis run, along side new Stream Sets generated in this Analysis run - the new Stream Sets are those that were rolled back to be redone from the original log.
The stream set in the console also provides the following buttons:
| Roll back the data for each Stream Set, and run Analysis again. Note that when data is rolled back, any subsequent - "downstream" - Stream Sets will also be rolled back. After "reprocessing" a Log File in this way, the Log File will be flagged as "Reprocessed", and no Stream Sets will be associated with it. |
