Audit Trail

| Overview

Audit Trail is a feature introduced in the internal portal of the 75F® system, which helps support internal users to track the changes made in different parts of the 75F® system which include the CCU, Facilisight portal, Facilisight App, and the Internal portal, with various filter options ranging from sites to actions that have been performed. The support user can easily filter out the modified items and identify any change that is made in the system.

It also provides the user with options to filter out changes made under different modules or services in the systems of 75F®, which aids the users with a better viewability and readability of the information that is been changed in the system.

| Audit Trail Message Enhancements

This is a feature implementation in the 75F system. This breaks down the messages in the audit trail further into finer details. It also provides enhanced visibility for the users, in the messages. 

Desired Temperature Change, Schedule change, and Occupancy type user intent messages in the audit trail were really generic and did not provide enough details to make enough sense of them.

Users were really not sure from where exactly the user intents changed or originated, whether the user intents changed from the edge devices or the scheduler in the portals and CCU?

Also for the sensor data, the messages did not support information as, to what type of sensor the messages originated. Was it from a Multi Sensor or from sensors in the edge devices HelioNode/OTN/HyperStat?

User Intent Breakdown

As a part of the above enhancement, the user intent type messages would start displaying the actual point of origin for the change in the "Who" field in the Audit trail.

The desired temp change type user intent messages will display one of the following under the "Who" field in the audit trail:

• Portals
• CCU
• HyperStat
• HelioNode
• SmartNode
• HyperStat Split

Below are a few references from Site Explorer.

The occupancy sensor triggers type user intent messages will display one of the following under the "Who" field in the audit trail.

• HyperStat Occupancy Sensor
• HelioNode Occupancy Sensor
• SmartNode Occupancy Sensor
• HyperStat Split Occupancy Sensor
• OTN Occupancy Sensor

The Schedule change type user intent messages will display one of the following under the "Who" field in the audit trail:

• CCU Scheduler
• Portal Scheduler

Below are a few references from Site Explorer.

 

Noise Cancellation

As another part of the enhancement, the noises for the occupancy type, forced occupied, and the timer reset for such forced occupied triggers had been taken care.

From now on there will be just one user intent message for the forced occupied type of occupancy and not a user intent message for every minute of the occupancy.

Also, the forced occupied timer will no longer reset itself for every minute of occupancy and will consider only the first minute of occupancy to start the timer.

| Audit trail for Remote Commands

The audit trail also supports the Tracing and receipt of the Remote tuner commands.

A remote tuner command triggered for any of the following

• CCU upgrade,
• CM restart,
• CCU restart etc... 

It is now available on the audit trail page under a new type of service level Remote Commands

The remote command status can also be traced using the Binoclour icon next to the audit record, as shown below.

| Audit trail for User Management

The Audit trail can now track changes and inclusion in the user management.

It can be a user-added, or a user role modified all of that is tracked and reported by the Audit trail.

A new filter User Management is introduced under the service level filter list to filter out the user management-related audit entries specifically.
