What is Audit Trail Software?

An audit trail or audit log is a history of every transaction and includes all of the documents involved in the purchasing and payment process, including messages between employees, invoices, purchase orders, and more. It’s a record of all the steps involved in the transaction.

You can think of an audit trail as insurance. You pay it no heed or need it unless something goes wrong. It’s the same for an audit trail. You don’t need it until you really need it. But if you don’t have one, the consequences can be catastrophic.

Importance and Value of an Audit Trail

How many times have people in accounting or finance spent hours searching for all the documents related to one transaction? A software audit trail can access all records instantly. The audit trail will also show corrections or other changes made to a transaction and provide visibility into who did what, when.

Tax audits can be painful and expose the business to tax penalty risk any time it happens. Audit fees are based on the time involved and paper processes will take up a considerable amount of it. Not having an audit trail, or having missing documents and transactions raises red flags for auditors. It’s wise to ensure everything is available for review, and quickly.
