From a technical point you can determine the level of logging in the system. Under normal log settings a user's login, data entry and any changes to records are logged which gives you an audit trail to see who changed what when. (with Recognition to Abdou)
Every user access is a logged activity visible in log files in each system which is collated at a central log, capturing machine IP and MAC address of hardware.
The information accessed , information pages and views will be available on temporary files as a string of data

Every transaction or activity is monitored and stored by the system which can be accessed by master data administrator or any allocated user as per the security and access manual. The transactions are recorded against each user id which is a unique identification for all users to keep track of the activity being performed by specific users. Logs are being maintained for all activities.
Honest to say, the concept of Introducing an ERP to any Organization is for Monitoring the User activities and relevant Business Transactions across the Organization. If you can consider a small concept from Purchasing Module itself, you will find an integrity User Interaction which starts from the Purchase Request to Approve and then Convert to Purchase Order by the Procurement team and adding the Supplier, Quoted Price, Promised Date of Delivery & Attaching the Email Conversation & Confirmations to reduce the Paper Usage, etc. So if you monitor this specific Purchase Request or Purchase Order, you will find all the User Interactions and Work flows. BTW, this is a simple concept and if you go into the deep level of Manufacturing Process, you will find all kind of User Interactions from different departments.
The goal of the ERP is to serve the end customer. it is important to go through deriving the demand, plan the requirements, make the necessary requisitions, obtaining approvals, and sourcing the requirements placing the purchase order.
this process keep all concerned departments in the loop in tracing the advancement of the job, by person, by date of accomplishment, by cost.
hence to efficiently manage the Customer relation management CRM.
Reason of using any ERP is for keeping data process track,data transparency,all edit & change logs for audit purpose,make the business with less of effort and with good & profit earning system.
External auditors place reliance on ERP system as they can locate the transactions and event recorded by end user and tracking process is justifiable.
Any Changes system can be record & Activity for any user , by system admin you can collect all users history & transaction
The core reason of using any ERP is for keeping data process track,data transparency,all edit & change logs for audit prupose,make the business with less of effort and with good & profit earning system.
And for all above we need to keep a trail of all activities being performed on the system using LOG Files that keeps a record of all activities & creates a trail of all complete day to day activities.
it has the capability of maintaining the user data on daily basis which helps ERP system to create trial for the users.
In the Baan/InforLN ERP system, user interaction in the LN applications will create a trail of user activity whenever a table is registered in the Audit Profile inside the Audit Management but it will consume extra resources of the system.
- Through user creation,
- Recording activity with reference to user, role, transaction, document reference, day and time.
