Introduction

Audit Trail allows to monitor every data change done in any table or entity through the user interface.

Audit trail feature monitors data changes such as:

  • Insert
  • Update
  • Delete

Audit trail feature must be enabled by the "System Administrator Role" in the Application Dictionary as the first thing to do is to configure the table/s for which this feature is going to be enabled.

Once a change has been done in a table for which audit trail feature has been enabled, it is be possible to monitor that change through the user interface by using the action button "Audit Trail".
