    Message on the device

    Auditlog

    An example auditlog entry of a localization of an Android device with the previously issued message

    Under  General Auditlog the localization actions are displayed with the corresponding message for each action.
    These auditlog messages are listed with "Location".
    For this purpose, the message entered above is also entered. This thus serves as justification for the localization of the Android device.
    Likewise, the localized Android device is displayed.

    The auditlog displays entries from the last 90 days. Older entries are automatically deleted.

    The   Export button downloads the auditlog as a .csv file.
