Audit trail (CE)

Before you can create an audit trail, the following information is required:

  • The size of the trail files (sequence files) that are created. Define the trail file size in the Audit Trail File Sizes (ttaud3135m000) session. Because the maximum number of sequence files for each table/company combination is 999, and you cannot delete the currently active file, you must choose a file size that enables you to delete old files, while keeping at least the currently active file. The trail file size must be large enough to store the audit trail of a large transaction, otherwise, the transaction is stopped.
  • The security settings for reading, maintaining, and deleting the sequence files. Define the security settings in the Audit Trail Security (ttaud3137m000) file.
Note

To activate these settings, you must use the Create Runtime Audit Definitions (ttaud3200s000) session, with the correct check boxes selected, to convert the settings to run time. Only the security settings are effective immediately, and must not be converted to run time.
