Exporting object logs
Any sorting or filtering that you do on the View Log page is not saved in the exported log. Exported logs are in ascending time order (from oldest to newest) and contain messages of any type issued in the last 3 days. The exception is job logs, which contain all the information recorded for the job since it entered the system.
The timestamp in an exported log is recorded in Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) followed by a plus sign (+) or a minus sign (−) and an offset representing the number of hours that the local time of the issuing system is ahead (+) or behind (−) GMT. However, the timestamp in an object log being viewed in RICOH ProcessDirector is displayed in the time zone of the browser that you are using.
