The Audit log records who did what in the home: access granted and withdrawn, changes to staff, records exported. Entries are written as sentences, newest first, grouped by day. It is open to everyone who works in the home, on purpose. A trail only deters anything if the people it covers know it can be read.

It is different from version history, which shows how one record changed, and from the safeguarding audit log, which covers access to safeguarding files.

Read it

Open Audit Log under Compliance in the sidebar. Each entry shows what happened, a line of detail where there is one, who did it, and when. Entries about the company rather than this home are marked Company-wide. If the person has since been removed, the entry says A removed user.

Use the filters at the top to narrow it:

Filter	What it does
Kind	Access, People, Home, Company or Records
Who	Anyone who appears in this home's trail
From, To	A date range

Clear filters puts it back. The log shows 50 entries a page; use Newer and Older to move through it.
