Audit Trail in Business Central

Audit Trail (Report) -
An Audit Trail is a chronological, tamper-evident record of actions taken on a system, document, or transaction, capturing who did what, when, where, and why.
Definition and Purpose -
An Audit Trail is a chronological record of system or business activities that provides verifiable evidence of actions taken, enabling organizations to reconstruct events accurately for compliance, security, and operational review.
It functions as a digital footprint, documenting interactions with documents, transactions, workflows, or systems, and is essential for accountability, transparency, and detecting unauthorized activity.
Unlike simple system logs, audit trails are designed for forensic review and regulatory compliance, not just technical troubleshooting.
