An audit trail is a chronological record that offers documentary evidence of the sequence of activities that have impacted any EPC object at various points in time. It focuses on tracking who performed what actions, when they did so, where these actions occurred, and how they were executed. The EPC diligently records all modifications made to objects, allowing users to retrieve audit trails in the form of either an Excel spreadsheet or a PDF document.
