Can I track changes to OFS-Flow Data?

Explains how to access the Audit Log for an OFS-Flow form, and what it records.

Your manufacturing operations likely record critical quality information in OFS-Flow. To build a chain of custody that holds up with internal Quality teams and customer auditors, OFS-Flow automatically captures an audit log for every digital quality record.

Finding the Audit Log

Find the record in your Flow Manager report (in OFS Analytics), highlight the alert, and select Audit Log

Reading the Audit Log

The Audit Log viewer has two parts:

  • The left side lists every audit event for the form, as a selectable timestamp and user identity.
  • The right side shows the details of whichever event is selected.

For example, the log might show that user ofsxadmin updated the values of three fields and saved the form's workstate to Pending at 12:02pm on 21 May 2024.

What gets logged

Audit logs are generated server-side from the submitted data, so they can't be manipulated, and are write-once — they can't be changed after saving.

Events that result in data changes are written to the audit log:

  • Workstate changes
  • Data changes
  • Form creation and expiry

Viewing or accessing data isn't logged in the Audit Log — this includes PDF generation and CSV export, which are captured by other logging mechanisms instead.
