Frequently asked questions about the audit log

Short answers about what the audit log records, exporting it, and migration runs.

Last updated

Can an audit entry be changed or deleted?

No. Entries cannot be changed or deleted, and reading them is not recorded.

Why can't I find an entry I expect?

Try a wider date range or fewer filters. Entries about records your Data Access Rules do not reach are not listed.

What does Operator support mean?

Somebody from outside your organisation, such as Backed's support team, acted here. They hold no role in your organisation.

Can I export one record's history?

Yes. The history of an application, a milestone, a contract and a payment each has an Export that saves it as a CSV or Excel file, using the filters the history shows. You need Can generate reports. To export a whole grant round's audit trail, use Export on Settings > Audit log; your exports from the last 24 hours are under Exports. See Export one record's history.

Did a dry run change our records?

No. A dry run's load was rolled back, so nothing it counts was saved.

What does signing off a migration run mean?

It records, under your name and in the audit log, that you have checked the run's reconciliation summary against your records.

This page uses Backed's default terms, such as Funding Round and Application Template. An organisation may rename them, so read each as your organisation's own term if you've renamed it.
