If I understand this correctly, the changes referred to are made as part of
the process to
apply development changes to production.
Is that correct?
If so, DML triggers could be temporarily placed on the apps tables to
capture what was done,
store the changes in another set of tables, and drop/disable the triggers.
There are many methods to accomplish that, but this one makes reporting a
bit easier.
Assuming my assumption was correct that is. :)
