In an organization, you have several processes working
simultaneously where you will find several record entries, updates, and
triggered workflows. You can monitor all of these constant changes in an
audit log.
Audit logs are the records of
every activity within a system. With these logs, you can inspect where a
particular change was made, who initiated the change, and the exact
date and time when the change occurred.
These
records are used to keep track of all the activities happening in the
organization and for troubleshooting purposes. These logs contain
in-depth information about every activity in the organization. Be it
adding an application or importing bulk users, a record falls under
audit logs where you can find detailed information of the activity.
