Viewing Activity Logs in Abacus Backend

Viewing Activity Logs in Abacus Backend

Abacus provides an Audit Log in the backend that can be used to review recent system activities. While it may not show every single change, it can be useful as a reference to check updates and actions taken on your account.


For example, if you would like to check changes made for a specific site (such as we have updated the printing template), you can follow the steps below.

  1. Log in to the Abacus backend 

  2. Once logged in, please go to POS Settings > Audit Log

  3. You will be redirected to the Audit Log page, where you can view recent activity records. Click the view button to see more details:

Helpful Notes

  • The Audit Log is for reference purposes and may not display all system changes.

  • Make sure you are logged in to the correct company/site before checking the logs.
