Creating a New Audit Object Type

Creating a new audit object type allows you to classify and organize audit objects into specific categories. This simplifies the management of objects and ensures more efficient audits.

The "Audit Object Types" directory contains three fields for each entry:

  1. Name: Enter the name of the audit object type.
  2. Inactive: A checkbox that determines the activity of the type. If checked, the type is considered inactive and unavailable for selection when creating audit objects.
  3. Description: Additional information about the audit object type to help other users understand its purpose.
