About Audits

Oracle Transportation Management uses different types of audits.

Audit Events

Audit events allow you to view historical changes made to configuration and access data. These changes may affect the stability and performance of the system, making it useful to record what's been changed.  

An audit event may include:

• The type of change
• Before and after values
• The user that made the change
• The reason for the change

These audit events are accessed via actions on several menus which include Configuration Audit, Property Audit, Security Audit, Agent Audit, Planning Configuration Audit, and Master Data Audit.

• See Audit Event for details on how to work with audit events.

Audit Trail

The audit trail is used to track what business objects have been changed. Most Oracle Transportation Management managers provide a View Audit Trail action/SmartLink on the Results page to view business objects that have changed based on Oracle Transportation Management events. For example, in Order Manager you can audit order changes based on whether orders are created or if specific data (e.g., dates, quantities, locations, status) for existing orders have been modified.

• See Audit Trail and View Audit Trail for details on how to run the audit.
• See How to Use the Audit Trail for instructions on how to set up and use the audit trail.
