A value that represents application-specific information.
Remarks
The TrackingContext property can be used to associate application-specific context with a tracked operation on a database table. The transaction applies the value set for TrackingContext in the following situations:
When a database operation that is being tracked is performed on a table for which tracking is enabled, the transaction sets the __sysTrackingContext column in the tracked row to the value of TrackingContext.
When a row in a tracked table is deleted and delete operations are being tracked on the table, the transaction sets the __sysTrackingContext column on the row when it is moved to the tombstone table (__sysOCSDeletedRows) to the value of TrackingContext.
The tracking infrastructure does not interpret the context value. An application developer can use the value to associate information important to the application with tracked changes; for example, it may be used to associate the user or system that made the change with the tracked data.
