## 3.1 Data Audit Trail

Data audit is a way to track the history of all the changes on any object from the date of creation. Every change is captured with a reason for the change. Auditing records activities performed on a business object on a specified date.

For example, the audit trail data can be searched for a specific user, who accessed the application, during a specific period of time and the type of operations performed by that user.

Any category can be selected for auditing. Categories with attributes spanning across multiple tables can also be audited. You can update the list of categories or attributes for audit.

The audit information can be archived for future reference.
