## Viewing Activities on the Account Timeline

Users can view the Account Timeline directly from an account to display a chronological history of all activities involving the account. This enables users to view an account's history, including any calls, medical events, or Approved Emails they have received.

Users can choose which activities to display on the Timeline, enabling them to only view relevant activities and view more details about those activities. Additionally, they can navigate to the record representing a Timeline activity, for example, a medical event, directly from the Timeline.

Activities in the Timeline display in reverse chronological order with the newest activities displaying first. Up to three months of historical activity and one month of planned activity displays by default. Days in the Timeline display in a descending order while activities display in ascending order.

See [Configuring Specific Timeline Items](../Config.htm#Configur) for a list of supported items to display on the Timeline.

Available activities can be configured by account object type. For example, the Timeline for an HCP can be configured to display Approved Emails activities while Pharmacies can display orders.

Sent emails display only if an open or click event is created.

The summary mode displays the count of each activity type occurring during that month.
