Help me figure out why this only works sometimes?

Each Customer has many Contacts.
Each Salesorder has many Contacts, but they must be connected to the Customer listed on the Salesorder.

When viewing a Customer, you can click a button to edit the Contact.
When viewing a Salesorder, you can also click a button to edit the Contact.

The difference here is that each button on the Customer or Salesorder pages links to different Controllers so that I know where to redirect when done updating. However, they access the same model: CustomerContact

When I make an update via the Customer page, it logs the activity, but when I make an update via the Salesorder page, it doesn't. Any idea as to why? Hopefully, this makes sense.

Here is the model code related to activity:

use LogsActivity

protected static $logFillable = true;
protected static $ignoreChangedAttributes = ['created_at', 'updated_at'];
protected static $submitEmptyLogs = false;
protected static $logOnlyDirty = true;
protected static $logName = 'customer-contact';

I'm not sure what I did, but it's working now.
