  The Auditing module allows for specific events to be audited by recording information relating to these events whenever they occur. Generally, these events are database updates, additions, or deletions from a particular table.

Users can configure which parts of the database should be audited, including specific row and column information or just the event itself.

An example might be price overrides in sales order entry where it's important not just to track the event but also record the order number, product, overridden price, user who made the change and the date/time. Event notes and free-format text can be entered for the events when they occur. Audited events are captured and written to a separate Auditing Database that can be interrogated by table and event-driven enquiry and reporting options.

User-based security within Enterprise allows individual organisations to define the level of security they require over their database. Security can be defined by individual users, or groups of users, and can be controlled to allow for database maintenance, viewing or reporting.

Users can specify from a range of tables (account codes, costs centres, revenue and expense codes) for particular Enterprise options that require security access checking, and ranges of either valid or invalid values for particular columns on these tables.
