Overview
If you want to track changes that are being made to items (records) for a specific list or for documents in a document library, you can turn on versioning settings. This allows you to see changes that have been made with each edit up to the limit that you have set.
Note
Each version is stored separately so keeping 3 versions really means three items or documents are stored which affects database size.
Versioning does not track changes made to the list settings itself, i.e. choice column changed from 3 to 4 options.
