Description

Examples

Log record on changes:

MBS( "Audit.Changed2"; MyTable::AuditTimeStamp; "MyTable"; "firstName"; "lastName"; "age" )

Run Audit.Changed2 with list of fields in a global field in the table:

Evaluate("MBS(\"Audit.Changed2\"; GetAsTimeStamp(\"" & Events::AuditTimeStamp & "\"); \"Events\"; \"" & Substitute(Events::AuditFields; "¶"; "\"; \"") & "\")")

Run Audit with GetFieldName with v8.3 or newer:

MBS("Audit.Changed2"; // call with positive list
AuditTimeStamp; // the timestamp field to trigger this
"Audit"; // the name of table
GetFieldName ( SomeText); // the fields to check
GetFieldName ( SomeNumber);
GetFieldName ( SomeTime);
GetFieldName ( SomeTimeStamp);
GetFieldName ( SomeContainer);
"InsideScript|" & $$InsideScript) // and we pass an extra field with global variable

Do Audit and set custom TransactionUUID field with UUID:

MBS( "Audit.Changed2"; MyTable::AuditTimeStamp; "MyTable"; "firstName"; "lastName"; "age"; "TransactionUUID|" & Get(UUID) )

• Version 10.2
  • For Audit.Changed and Audit.Changed2 you can now customize AuditLog table name. The table name parameter can be a list and include first the table name for the table to check and second the name of the audit table name. If second is empty, we default to AuditLog.
