How to View the Log File?
The View Log File option will allow you to view the audit file on screen.

Two different viewing options are available. Click in the Radio Button next to the option you want.

1. DISPLAY ALL AUDIT LOG ENTRIES AVAILABLE FOR THIS COMPANY IN A GRID WITH A "FIND" OPTION

This option may take a while to display.

You may double-click on a heading to sort per column.

When you right-click on any cell, the following "Find" options will be displayed:

Find,
Find Next, and
Find Previous.

When one of these options are selected, a Find Information Screen will be displayed, from where you may define further information.

 

2. DISPLAY ALL AUDIT LOG ENTRIES AVAILABLE FOR THIS COMPANY IN A PAGED GRID WITH NO "FIND" OPTION

This is the default option when you access this screen and is the faster of the two options on this screen.

You may double-click on a heading to sort per column.

Use the up and down arrows on the right-hand side of the screen to scroll up and down.

How to Print the Log File
The Print Log File option will allow you to print the audit file.

You have to specify the Report Criteria at the top of the screen.

Additional Printing options are also available:

• Include grid lines when printing:

  • Include header and footer information when printing.
    
• Print to File:
  • The file will be printed to a HTML document which can be viewed in MS Excel or MS Word. Please take note that when you select this option, the "Include header and footer" information when printing option above must not be selected.
• Print to Printer:
  • This includes a print preview.
     

How to Purge the Log File
The Purge Log File option will allow you to purge audit log transactions.

You may select the Period Ending 'From' and 'To' which the records must be purged. If you accept the default selections on this screen, namely 'First' and 'Last', all records will be deleted.

Please take note of the VERY IMPORTANT message at the bottom of the screen, before you select to purge any records.

Because of the size of the Audit Log File, it is advisable to rebuild the log file after selecting to purge audit log transactions. See How to Rebuild the Log File below for more information.
