Auditing is a security feature for monitoring events that occur in a repository or application. Auditing an event creates an audit trail, a history in the repository of the occurrence of the event. Audit information can be used to:
Analyze patterns of access to objects.
Monitor when critical documents change or when the status of a critical document changes.
Monitor the activity of specific users.
Record all occurrences of a particular event on a given object or given object type
Record all occurrences of a particular event in the repository, regardless of the object to which it occurs
Record all workflow-related events in the repository
Record all occurrences of a particular workflow event for all workflows started from a given process definition
Record all executions of a particular job
Record all events in the repository
