The Screen Audit function provides information about users' access to screens in Databridge. It shows timestamped entries detailing which screen staff members have attempted access and if they were successful or not.

Using the Screen Audit function

To access the screen audit function go to the Administration module and choose Screen Audit. The screen audit function provides some options on filtering the results.

Firstly you can specify the date range for the screen audit report by choosing Range and picking from one of the preset date ranges below.

Option	Description
Today	Show screen access records from today
Yesterday	Show screen access records from yesterday onwards
From 7 days ago	Show screen access records from the last 7 days
From 14 days ago	Show screen access records from the last 14 days
From 21 days ago	Show screen access records from the last 21 days
Last 30 days	Show screen access records from the last 30 days

Important
The audit data for screen access is only kept in the database for a maximum of 30 days. This is to ensure the amount of data held for this does not cause issues for your database.
If you need to look further than this you will need to rely on previous database backups. Contact Databridge for assistance in these cases.

The default sorting order for the data by ascending date/time. You can if you wish change the sort method by accessing the Order By dropdown, choosing one of the following options.

Option	Description
Date/Time	Order by ascending date/time
Staff	Order alphabetically by staff name
URL	Order alphabetically by accessed screen name

To generate the report (data) choose Run Report, the data will appear in the right hand panel. The generated information will be shown in a table with column headings as per the list below.

Option	Description
Date/Time	The timestamp of the audit entry
Staff	The name of the staff member (user) carrying out the access
Attempted access to	Details of the Databridge screen, or file, the staff member attempted to access
