Topics to be Audited

Audit topics are grouped in related sets, called topic types, based on functional areas within the system. You can choose to audit all defined areas of your system or select individual functions in an area.

Auditing must be enabled for actions to be recorded in your database. The only exceptions are the Audit Configuration change and Sign Electronic Signature topics; these topics are audited and stored at all times.

Audit topics span all operations of the topic type. For example, the Equipment Model topic type includes a topic called Modify Property Value or Binding, which audits changes to all property values for all equipment resources. You cannot audit the changes made to an individual equipment instance (or class) property.
