Audit Trail Events
You can view an audit trail of changes that you make to reference tables. The Analyst tool creates audit trail log events when you make a change to a reference table and enter an audit trail note.
Audit trail log events provide information about the reference tables that you manage. You can configure query options on the Audit Trail tab to filter the log events that you view. You can configure filters on the date range, type, user name, and status.
The following table describes the filter options you configure when you view audit trail log events:
Option | Description |
|---|
Date | Start and end dates for the log events to search for. Use the calender to choose dates. |
Type | Type of audit trail events. You can filter and view the following events types: - - Data. Events related to data in the reference table. Events include creating, editing, deleting, and replacing all rows.
- - Metadata. Events related to reference table metadata. Events include creating reference tables, adding, deleting, and editing columns, and updating valid columns.
|
User | User who edited the reference table and entered the audit trail comment. The Analyst tool generates the list of users from the Analyst tool users configured in the Administrator tool. |
Status | Status of the audit trail log events. Status corresponds to the action performed in the reference table editor. |
Audit trail log events also include the audit trail comments and the column values that were inserted, updated, or deleted.
