What gets captured in the audit log?

Actions recorded:

• Creating or updating records (via POST and PATCH requests)
• Deleting items (for example, deleting a payment will show in the pay run audit log)

Information stored:

• Details of the request
• Date and time of the action
• Who made the change (user and session info)
• Data before and after the change

Tagging:

Each audit entry is linked to the relevant item, such as the company, employee, or pay run.
