Infotype Logging on IT0000 - BEGDA not avalibale

Question

Hi all,
I have been using infotype logging since a very long time. I noticed a peculiar thing which I had not before, since I never had this requirement.
Infotype logging does not allow logging to be performed on BEGDA ( in T585B table ) . Becuase of this, I am facing a peculiar issue.
If an employee is performed the same action(MASSN)  with the same reason for action(MASSG) with different begin dates(BEGDAs) it does not get logged. A PERNR who gets promoted twice in a year will not have this recorded in IT0000 since everything except BEGDA remains the same to his prior record and IT logging cannot be done  on BEGDA changes.
For example - this are the records in IT0000 for an employee
PERNR          MASSN           MASSG          BEGDA
1) 00010000    Z1                      01                  03/01/2009
2) 00010000    Z2                      01                  03/01/2010
3) 00010000    Z2                      01                  08/01/2010
Z1  - new hire                01 - new position
Z2 - Position change   -  01 Promotion
Infotype  LOGS  for IT0000
Record 1 and 2 appear in the logs. Record 3 does not get logged  since record 2 and 3 are the same except for BEGDA. And since BEGDA is not available for logging, BEGDA Changes are not considered for logging.
has anyone faced this issue earlier
