What is it?

On the Audit Trails page, the admin user can trace system actions by users and resources during a selected timeframe. Automatic actions the Controlant platform performs (e.g., automatically closed shipments) are also included.

Navigating the new interface

A new and improved interface is available if you click on the link in the banner on top. You can switch back and forth between the two interfaces depending on the timeframe from which you need data.

The new interface only contains records created after July 3, 2023.

Image Removed

You can filter the records based on four criteria (the fourth being either ID or Reference number.)

Image Removed

After setting the criteria and clicking on the

Status
titlesearch
button, the results appear in the designated area.

Image Removed

When you click on a result, the empty info section on the right gets populated with relevant data about the selected record.

Clicking on any links in the

Status
titlerelates to
field will update the relevant criteria, and a new search will bring you to all the records associated with it.

Example: If you notice something unusual in one shipment, you might wonder if it's a common occurrence in that city. To confirm, click on the location ID in the "Relates to" field. This will update the "Location" field in the search criteria. Once you click the Search button, you'll immediately see all the records linked to that ID.

The changes are displayed in a 3-column table with the name of the changed value, the original value, and the updated value.
