Export audit trail report

The Audit Trail report serves as a comprehensive log of records associated with the approval or rejection of eTMF files. It captures key information such as the user name of those who approved or rejected files, the timestamps of these actions, and so on. This report provides a detailed chronology of events for transparency and traceability, allowing for thorough reviews of system activity during internal audits or external regulatory inspections.

When working with the Audit Trail report, you can view the report online in eTMF or export it as an XLSX file to your computer to view offline.
