Auditing

Purpose

An Audit trail is used to track the changes made to an object. For example client, account, project, interest profile, interest profile line, bailment account etc. The detail of the change is recorded, when the change was made and by whom. Many of the objects within Vault are audited.  The changes can be viewed via the  button on the objects dialog.  If there is no  button the object is not audited and no history is kept of the changes made.
