Is there any way to view more than 30 days worth of your account history, the records of what in-world (and usually L$-based) transactions you have been involved with in SL?
I have a suspicion that the Lindens can do it, but I don't want to bother them with this unless there is no other option.
Any suggestions?

I have a suspicion that the Lindens can do it, but I don't want to bother them with this unless there is no other option. Any suggestions? Last I heard, it was not possible for anyone *at all* to view transactions older than 30 days. They are expunged from the database. When I was running GOM, a longer (i.e. infinite) account transaction history was a desirable feature that did not exist and was not planned to be implemented. |

Download your transaction history manually, every two weeks (to give a margin for error in case you are delayed in making a download), and compile it yourself into a larger Excel spreadsheet. That is your only option right now.
They cut it back to only 2 weeks available on the website for a bit, and merchants screamed bloody murder. They were able to restore the 4 week viewing window, with no loss of back data. So yes, my assumption is that they certainly could extend it further back. They just won't. _____________________

I did not know until just now that there is a viewable history of transactions. Bloody hell, this would've saved me from having to buy JEVN.

JEVN gives you far better records than the LL transaction history does. And they can be e-mailed directly to you, so you never have to mess with manual data downloads.

At one point you could go back an infinite amount of time in your account history. Once SL reached a certain size, they silently cut that off, leaving us with only 30 days.
The only option now is to do as Ceera suggests - of course this will only help you going forward. There have been many Answers posts on this subject as well, all have been responded with a "Sorry, that data isn't available."  _____________________
