The Audit Trail report lists important information about each activity performed while operating in the Sage 50 company. The Audit Trail report can trace fraudulent activity and other accounting adjustments or errors you may not know were completed.

To get the most out of Sage 50's Audit Trail log, it is highly recommended that you set up user records in the User Security window. Sage 50 can associate the user currently logged into the Sage 50 company with the data that is being entered or maintained, thus providing a more complete audit trail.
