Audit Changes to Assignments

The Assignment Auditing feature provides administrators with visibility into all changes made to assignments, including creation, modification, deletion, completion, and uncompletion (Insert, Update, Delete, Complete, and Uncomplete). This ensures accountability, promotes transparency, and supports compliance during audits and timesheet reviews.

This article is divided into two sections:

  • How to Set Up Auditing – This section covers the steps to enable auditing for Time Entries (Setup > Organization > System > Security > Audit Trail).
  • How to View the Audit Trail – This section explains how to access and view Time Entry Audit Trail (Tools > Audit Trail).

By following these steps, you can effectively track changes made to Time Entries and maintain full visibility over time-tracking activities within your organization.
