Data Audit

With this functionality, users can see the full history of changes made to any record of an auditable entity, as well as the out-of-the-box report of all such actions.

Hint

System administrator defines what entities will be available for audit. Any entity can be set as auditable. For how to do it, see step 6 of the Create an Entity action description.

Data Audit Report

You can view the data audit statistics by navigating to System > Data Audit in the main menu in the back-office of all Oro applications.

The report grid contains the following information:

  • ACTION — Defines the action that has been performed with the record. You can see if the record has been created, updated or removed.
