Database record auditing

Database record auditing allows you to check the HPE Service Manager database for modifications to specified fields within a file. When you update records in a file, record auditing tracks the updates when Paging is not available, whereas Paging creates a unique record or page for every update.

Database Manager detects field modifications by comparing the input values in fields from the original version of a record to the values of the same fields in the updated version. When a modification is detected, Database Manager generates an Audit Log entry containing the following information:

  • The name of the modified fields.
  • The old and new version of the data.
  • The date and time of the modification.
  • The user ID of the operator who modified the record.
