The various update date track modes are:

CORRECTION : Over writes the data. No history will maintain.
UPDATE : Keeps the history and new change will effect as of effective date
UPDATE_CHANGE_INSERT : Inserts the record and preserves the future
UPDATE_OVERRIDE : Inserts the record and overrides the future
