Audit History

Form ID: (SM205530)

You can use this form to view the audit trail of the audited form—that is, the recorded database table changes that are associated with the modifications of the documents made by using the audited form. The audit trail shows the user who modified the document, the date and time of the update, and the details of the modification of the selected database table. You can filter the modifications that you view in any audited database table by user and by date range.
