User Detailed Auditing

When the User Detailed Auditing option, available under Setup > Organization tier of Audit Setup page (Setup > Organization > System > Security) is turned on, changes made to the Users can be tracked and available on the History tab to indicate what, when and by whom it was made, including changes made to user fields across the General, Personal, Security, and User Defined Fields (UDFs) tabs.

Note: Only modifications performed within the User Edit page (General, Personal, and Security tabs) are audited.

Caution: Modifications made to a user outside of the User Edit page—such as editing a Team by associating a User with it—are not yet included in the User History. Auditing for these types of modifications will be available in an upcoming release
