Audit trail

An audit trail is a record of who changed what and when, kept so that a past state of a system can be reconstructed and investigated. Syndik8 keeps audit-trail data on two things in particular: usage logs and the financial ledger.

Editing a saved usage log stamps the editor’s identity and the moment of the edit. The only user-visible sign of the edit is an “(edited)” marker on the log entry shown on the booking detail. There is no separate edit-history view.

The financial ledger is append-only. A transaction is never edited in place; corrections are made by posting a reversal, leaving both the original and the reversal visible forever.
