Audit Records, Signature Records, and GUIDs

The system adds a GUID to audit and signature records. You can use the GUID to track the audit and signature records that are associated with the same action. For example, when a user modifies a field configured to trigger an audit and then clicks the OK button configured for a signature approval, the system creates audit and signature records. The system attaches the same GUID to each of these records. You can use this GUID when reviewing and creating reports of audit and signature records that are associated to a particular action.

A GUID can be created in different ways. The following tables shows how a GUID is created in the various database programs:

For Oracle:

Action

GUID

CFRMKEY

CFRPID

CFRUSER

Interactive OW Application

GUID passed from JDB

mkey from JDB

pid from JDB

user from JDB

Interoperability Applications

"OW without GUID"

hostname

program name

login_userID

Direct Table Operations

"Third Party"

hostname

program name

login_userID

For DB2 for Linux, UNIX, and Windows database:

Action

GUID

CFRMKEY

CFRPID

CFRUSER

Interactive OW Application

GUID passed from JDB

mkey from JDB

pid from JDB

user from JDB

Interoperability Applications

"OW without GUID"

"OWNOGUID"

"OWNOGUID"

$USER

Direct Table Operations

"Third Party"

"3RDPARTY"

"3RDPARTY"

$USER

For DB2 for i:

Action

GUID

CFRMKEY

CFRPID

CFRUSER

Interactive OW Application

GUID passed from JDB

mkey from JDB

pid from JDB

user from JDB

Interoperability Applications

"OW without GUID"

"OWNOGUID"

"OWNOGUID"

"OWNOGUID"

Direct Table Operations

"Third Party"

For SQL Server:

Action
