Audit Trial

The Audit Trail in the Communications module provides a comprehensive record of all actions performed on communications and documents within a study room. This feature is designed to help users track activities for auditing and compliance purposes. Users can filter the audit trail by various criteria to retrieve specific records efficiently.

The audit trail can be filtered by:

• Actions Taken: Select specific types of actions, such as Created, Modified, or Deleted.
• Created By: Filter records based on the user who performed the action.
• Date Range: Specify the start and end dates to view actions within a particular timeframe.
• Document, Folder, Placeholder, and Users: Use these options to further narrow down the search to specific entities.
