Audit 6.2

The Audit page lists event notifications sent as the result of jobs that have run.

About auditing in Alert

Audit also shows the notifications that were ignored because they did not match any of the configured jobs. You can multi-select to resend notifications. When re-sending a notification, Alert verifies that the notifications match a configured job, and highlights the notifications that did not match a job and shows an error.

For notifications matching multiple Jobs, Alert displays the jobs that it matched. Each job displays its own status and timestamps for last sent. For each entry in the table, you can expand a job and see details of each notification.

As of Synopsys Alert versions 4.1.0 and later, all provider notifications display in the Audit table, which includes both sent and unsent notifications.

In Synopsys Alert versions 5.1.0 and higher, the Audit table no longer displays notification type icons and instead displays a count of the notification types if there is more than one, and lists them on hover. Alert lists the notification types when clicking the entry in the Audit table. Alert versions 5.1.0 and higher also includes a Notification Types column.

To access the Audit table, click Audit in the left navigation panel.

The Audit table displays the following information for each event. You can sort the table using any of the column headings.

• Provider

• Notification Types Double-clicking the notification type displays the notification details.

• Time Retrieved

• Last Sent

• Status

• Resend: To resend an event, click the resend icon in the far right column.

Audit additional options

The following additional options are located in the upper right corner of the Audit page.

• Only show sent notifications: Clicking this checkbox displays only the notifications that have been sent.

• Enable Auto-Refresh: Clicking this checkbox automatically updates the Audit table.

• Search: Use the Search function to locate specific notifications.

• Clear: Click to remove all audit table entries.

You can click an entry in the Audit table to see additional details. Clicking an entry in the Audit table provides the following display options.

• Distribution Jobs: (Default view) This tab displays the list of jobs that distributed the notification.

• Notification Content: This tab displays the notification details formatted by the distribution job and sent in the notification.

The following controls are common to both the Audit page and the additional details window.

• Item count selector: This control in the lower-left corner determines the number of entries shown in the details view. Options are 10, 25, 30, and 50.

• Page count: The blue indicator in the lower right corner displays the number of pages contained within the details view. If there are multiple pages, you can click the > and < buttons to navigate forward (>) or backward (<) through the pages.

Audit considerations

• Click an item in the list for detailed information about an event. To resend an event, click the refresh icon in the far right column.

• The Enable Auto-Refresh checkbox, located at the upper right, is selected by default. This enables the Audit screen to automatically refresh when a new event is sent.

• To locate a specific event in the Audit list, enter text into the Search box; Alert searches all fields displayed in the Audit list and filters the list to only those events that match your search criteria.

• When resending notifications, notifications are sent to all jobs in the Distribution Jobs tab. For each job, the notification is sent if it matches the distribution job filter criteria. If the filter criteria for the job has changed since the audit message was viewed, then resending does not work because the notification no longer matches the filter criteria of the job.

• When expanding the job table (clicking an item to see the detailed view), you can send to individual jobs.
