General Information about Audit Trail

Every relevant change in the configuration or in the business data needs to be tracked. This is e.g. important in case the application behaves unexpected.

The application provides full logging of all those changes.

Any change is logged in log files under data\log.

In addition there is a pointer record in the table SLG.

By using audit trail it is possible to identify changes using reports or APIs. This allows the user to select and sort data with several different criteria like changer, change date or changed table.

When storing the changes only in files it is only possible to find changes for single records.

As the log files can not be used in reports or APIs there is a process to convert the flat files into database entries. This is handled by Manager for Audit Trail.

Audit trail information can be seen in reports under Report Generator Audit Trail.
