D: Run an Employee Change History report and set Today as the Month filter.
Correct Answer:
B. Run an Employee Change History report and set Last Month as the Date filter.
Explanation

The Employee Change History report is the designated tool in NetSuite for auditing modifications made to employee records. This report specifically tracks the old and new values for any field that has been altered, including the Supervisor field. By setting the Date filter to a range such as 'Last Month' or 'within the last 30 days', an administrator can precisely isolate all employee records where the Supervisor field was changed during that specific timeframe, thereby generating the required list.

Why Incorrect

A. An Employee search shows the current data on a record; it does not inherently track historical changes to specific fields.
C. Adding Supervisor and Date as results in a search shows the current supervisor and last modified date, not the history of supervisor changes.
D. The filter combination 'Today as the Month filter' is illogical and would not correctly filter for changes over the last 30 days.
