Specifying Parent-Child Associations for Audit

In the Siebel application, parent-child associations are set through:

• MVG (multi-value group) fields
• Parent-child applets

Audit Trail can keep track of changes in parent-child associations. For example, you can audit the association (and dissociation) of contacts with accounts.

This task is a step in Process of Configuring and Using Audit Trail.

To configure business components for auditing of parent-child associations

1. Determine the name of the child business component whose association you want to audit.
2. Navigate to the Administration - Audit Trail screen.
3. In the Audit Trail Buscomp list:
   • Select an existing record for the parent business component.

     Or

   • Create a new record for the parent business component and complete the necessary fields. Some fields are described in table in Step 2 of the preceding procedure.

5. Click the Child Buscomp view tab.
