Audit Log

Review a chronological record of all changes made to your SDS library.

The audit log records every change to your SDS library: documents added, updated, deleted, or moved to a new status. Use it to verify who changed what and when.

Audit log table showing recent changes to the SDS library

Review changes

Each row in the log shows:

ColumnWhat it shows
Document IDThe SDS reference number. Select it to open the document directly.
ActionWhat happened: Created, Updated, Status Changed, or Deleted.
User IDWho made the change. Automated changes show System.
TimestampThe exact date and time of the change.

Select the eye icon on a row to open Audit Log Details. It names the action and the exact time, then shows two sections where the record has them: Changes for the fields that were modified with their previous values, and Metadata for the technical context NextSDS stored alongside the change. Both appear as raw recorded data rather than a formatted table.

Sort and customise the view

Select any column header to sort the log by that column. Select Columns to show or hide columns.
