Searching the audit trail

Using the Audit Query widget, you can select parameters to search for specific data in the audit trail database on TT. Each query can contain one or more parameters and can be saved and modified for later use. You can also find specific data within your audit trail search results.

After searching for specific data in the audit trail, you can use the widget to:

• Print or export the search results.
• Modify the saved query.

To search the audit trail:

1. Open the Audit Query widget.
2. To use an existing query, click the query selector and choose one from the drop down list.

   

3. To create a new query, click Add Query Parameter and select a column name from the drop down list.

   

   Enter a value for each selected column name as needed. Multiple parameters can be added.

   

4. Click Search at the bottom of the widget.

   

   The results are displayed in the widget.

   

   Tip: After the search is completed, you can click "Resume" to search for additional records using the same parameters.

5. Click Find to look for specific values or fields within the search results.

   

6. To save the search parameters as a new query, click the Save icon () and enter a query name.
7. For filtering search results, apply a column filter. Click the caret at the top of a column. From the dropdown, tick the checkbox next to the term(s) you would like to limit the search results to. Click Ok. Column headers that are highlighted in yellow contain active filters. To remove the filter, click the highlighted column header to show the dropdown and click Clear Filter.
