What is an audit trail?

An audit trail is a set of records that includes all the manipulations made to a document or device. The list must be created in chronological order and provide comprehensive information about any activity. For example, in a document audit trail of a high quality, you’ll be able to see the history of changes, the name of a user, time of action, their IP addresses, approximate locations, and much more. This option comes in handy while working with process analysis and enhancing security.

What does an audit trail check for?

An audit trail's primary purpose is to show all the activities in a document/on a device. By having a comprehensive list of records of what, when, and by whom the changes were made, you increase the security level and protect yourself from fraud. Furthermore, in capable hands, it can also function as an analytics widget and assist you in enhancing your company's data analytics workflow.

What is an audit trail in qualitative research?

When it comes to working with research, an audit trail functions as a description of all its steps from the very beginning to reporting results. It helps to make a data analytics workflow more transparent and understandable for people who want to review the outcomes. Of course, you can skip creating these descriptions, but research process analytics is likely to become harder and less engaging for the third parties.

What is an audit trail report?

It's a chronological order of records containing evidence for process analytics. Each record tracks all document changes and collects data for identifying the author of these changes. In an audit trail report, you can find the name of a person that modifies a record, their IP address, type of device, operating system, browser, and many more details about a person. Consider checking the log to discover new ways to make your data analytics workflows more efficient and stimulate your business.

What is process analysis?

Process analysis is the first step to implementing improvements. To perform these analytics, an organization must analyze how it completes tasks, compare inputs with outputs, recognize bottlenecks, and find how to avoid them.

How do I write a process analysis?

How does data analytics help improve business processes?

Business processes in every sphere and industry are closely connected with document workflows. Some statistics suggest that they take up to 75% of HR’s time. Smooth and consistent workflows free up time and money for companies to focus on important tasks. If you find yourself smothered in bottlenecks, delays and hundreds of notifications, it’s a clear sign to start optimizing your business processes.

Successful optimization requires preliminary analysis in order to identify the strengths and weaknesses of your processes. Once you know where your workflow’s weaknesses are, you can experiment with solutions until you’re completely satisfied with the result. But how do you go about measuring strengths and weaknesses? There are a lot of analytics widgets (tools) out there built for doing exactly that. They help trace processes from start to finish and provide clear statistical data that allows you to pinpoint inefficiencies.

How to analyze business processes

With the help of workflow analysis, businesses can scan their performance and look for areas to boost efficiency, productivity and promote growth. To understand the ups and downs of workflow processes, businesses employ three basic methods:

Interview employees — Nobody knows an organization’s routine processes better than the employees performing them daily. They can provide important information on the consistency of the process, participants and their responsibilities.
Analyze process models — In order to assess a process’s model, its goal, value and KPI should be established.
Record metrics — The process becomes clear when it’s displayed in figures or graphs where the required managers can easily trace ups and downs, growth and inconsistencies. Visual documentation is essential for effective management and analysis.

To further improve the above methods, the most successful companies deploy robotic process automation (RPA) for more automated analyses. A great example of effective RPA is an audit trail or analytics widgets. These built-in tools enable businesses to generate performance results in real time, introduce changes and assess their impact.
