NetSuite Audit Logs

NetSuite Audit Logs are a built-in feature of the NetSuite ERP platform that records a detailed history of system activity. This includes user login events, changes to records and transactions, configuration updates, and modifications to roles and permissions. Every event is timestamped and attributed to a specific user, providing a complete and reliable audit trail across your NetSuite environment.

NetSuite tracks a wide range of system events including record creation, edits and deletions, transaction changes, user login and logout activity, failed login attempts, role and permission changes, and system configuration updates. The level of detail captured makes it possible to trace virtually any change back to a specific user and point in time.

NetSuite retains audit log data for a defined period in line with its data retention policies. For businesses with longer retention requirements, it is recommended to export and archive audit log data regularly. Annexa can advise on the best approach for your specific compliance and governance requirements.

Yes. NetSuite audit logs provide a detailed and tamper-evident record of all activity within your system, including changes to financial transactions and access events. This information can be used to support your position in an ATO audit or regulatory review by demonstrating the integrity of your financial records and the controls in place within your system.

Core audit log functionality is available within the standard NetSuite platform. Some advanced search, reporting, and governance features may require additional configuration or modules depending on your business requirements. Annexa can help you understand exactly what is available in your current configuration and what additional capabilities may be beneficial.

NetSuite operates on an annual subscription model, which includes three key components: the core platform, optional modules, and the number of users. There is also a one-time implementation fee for the initial setup. While core audit log functionality is included in the standard NetSuite platform, advanced compliance and governance capabilities may require additional configuration depending on your needs. As your business expands, you can easily add new modules and users. Contact Annexa for a tailored pricing estimate based on your specific requirements, or use our price calculator to get started.

NetSuite audit logs are maintained within the platform’s secure cloud infrastructure and are not directly editable by end users or administrators. This helps ensure the integrity of the audit trail and provides confidence that log data accurately reflects the true history of system activity.
