vocabulary - What do you call a person who add records to a log?


I have a log with records. How do you call a person who adds records to this log? a Logger maybe?



Answer



Depending on the field it can be specific,


I would avoid "logger", as it can mean "lumberjack", and when used in a business context usually refers to software that generates logs, not a person who creates them.




Data entry clerk



Is common if you're talking about a person who professionally enters data.


As with any written record you can use,



Author



or




Recorder



My preference would be "recorder" given that it is a term used to describe a person who takes down records, which seems best for your situation.
