Field | Description |
Number of days to retain audit history
|
Enter the number of days for which you want to retain audit trail information for your info centers. If the value in this field is reduced, then records that are older than the new value will be deleted upon save. For example, if the value for this field is 20, then all audit trail information older than 20 days will be deleted. If the value for this field is reduced to 10 from 20, then all audit trail information older than 10 days will be deleted upon save.
This option does not apply to configuration audits.

Log User Activity
|
Select this option to track user log in and log out time stamps in the User Activity Utility. If this option is selected, the User Activity grid displays the
Log In and
Log Out columns in place of the
Application and
Last Activity columns. The
Last Activity field below the User Activity grid will also be replaced with the
Logout Time field.
Consequently, selecting this option clears all existing application activity logs from the system.

The Audit Trail feature has the ability to track only key values when you delete main records from Info Centers. If you select this option and a main Info Center record is deleted (for example, an Employee), then only key columns are tracked.
If you do not select this option, then all columns of the main record and all rows of all subsidiary tables are tracked.
