Audit Trail
Audit Trail
An audit trail is a sequential record that documents the history, sequence, and details of each activity, transaction, or event in a system or process.
In HR and payroll, an audit trail helps maintain transparency and accountability by capturing information on changes made to records, including who made the change, when it was made, and what was altered.
Audit trails are essential for compliance with legal and regulatory requirements, as they provide a verifiable path for reviewing and tracking data for internal and external audits, investigations, and process improvements.
