Audit Search 

Search by Program Name

Searching by a program name gives a filter level directly linked to a program. Additionally, the Program Name feature gives the ability to see changes made within the Browse tables rather than what was modified within the module.

  1. Input the Change Date From and To fields. When the From date is entered, it automatically inputs the ending date of the month in the To field.  Update this date as necessary.  
  2. Select the program name from the list.

  3. The system will automatically filter the table and display items that have had Action items applied, such as Create, Modify, or Delete.  
  4. To add an additional level of search, it is suggested that Key Field 1, Key Field 2, and Key Field 3 be utilized.
    Note: Searching by Field Name requires an EXACT match.
  5. To search by Key Field 1 (to find a specific account), select from the drop-down list (Ex. CUSTOMER).
  6. Enter the customer account number. This value must be equal to the total number of allowable digits for a customer account which is 10 characters. Choose Search.
    • If the customer account number is not equal to 10 characters, insert leading zeros.  
      • Account 12345 should be entered as 0000012345.
    • For a tank RRN, the number of allowable characters is nine.  Graphical user interface, text, application, email

    • MARY.SHR modified Customer Account 7149371 from Previous Value A to I for Active to Inactive.
    • MARY.SHR modified the Active Inactive Date to 20220601 (06/01/2022).
    • MARY.SHR modified the Inactive Reason Code to a 6.
    • All actions took place on 06/01/2022 at 9:07:04 AM
    • There are no additional items in the Key Field 2 or Key Field 3 areas. Items that might appear in these fields are contract numbers, call-in entries, etc.  
  8. If additional search items should be entered, select an Action type such as Delete if trying to determine if a user deleted an item.  
  9. An additional search filter is Changed By. Enter the Energy Force username such as JOE.CASE.

Search by Key Field 1, Key Field 2, and Key Field 3

If unsure which Program Name to select, leave the Program Name blank and instead choose to search by Key Fields.  Key Field 1 must have an entry before Key Field 2 can be chosen and so on.
