Processing Audit Package Templates

In ILM Retention Warehouse, you use an audit package template to restrict the entire scope of the tables, field views (data views), and relationships according the the information you need for auditing purposes. You can use them to prepare for queries related to tax audits or financial audits or for product liability purposes. You use the audit package template as the basis for creating an audit package.

You can create new audit package templates or copy, change, and delete existing audit package templates.

Prerequisites

You have joined the required tables in the audit area as a view (data view) for these queries, if this is necessary.
