Specifying Business Components and Business Component Fields for Audit
You administer the business component and the business component fields to be audited from the Administration - Audit Trail screen. This task is a step in Process of Configuring and Using Audit Trail. To configure the business component and business component fields to be audited
- Navigate to the Administration - Audit Trail screen.
- In the Audit Trail Buscomp list, create a new record, and complete the necessary fields.
Some fields are described in the following table.
|
|
Assoc |
Specifies whether to audit associations with the child business components in the Child Buscomp list. See Specifying Parent-Child Associations for Audit. |
End Date |
Date on which the auditing stops. Turn Audit Trail off for an individual business component by setting the End Date to a date that has already passed. |
New |
Select if you want to audit the New operation. |
Restriction Type |
Specifies whether there is a rule determining who gets audited. |
Start Date |
Date on which the auditing starts. |
Update |
Select if you want to audit the Update operation. |
Export |
Select if you want to audit the Export operation. |
- In the Field list, create a new record for the field you want to audit.
Some of the fields are described in the following table.
|
|
Column Name |
Displays the column name of the selected field. |
Field |
Select the field name you want to audit. The details of the selected field are displayed in the Table Name, Column Name, and Join columns. |
Join |
Displays the join name associated with the column. |
Read Field Value |
Select if you want to store the field value during the audits of read operations. |
Table Name |
Displays the table to which the column belongs. |
- Repeat Step 3 until the Field list shows all the fields in that business component that you want to audit.
NOTE: In any deployment of Audit Trail, there might be a negative impact on performance, depending on the number of fields audited, and the number of audit records created by a business process. The impact might be greater for audits that include read operations, because this is the most common operation. If you audit a large number of fields on a business component, or audit fields in a large number of business components, there might be an unacceptable performance impact.
To disable individual business components
- Navigate to the Administration - Audit Trail screen.
- Use one of the following methods to disable Audit Trail:
- In the Audit Trail Buscomp list, enter an end date prior to today's date in the End Date field.
- In the Audit Trail Buscomp list, delete the record for the business component.
