# Configuring auditing for a table

You can enable table auditing to track changes to all or some of the table's
fields.

## Vorbereitungen

Role required: admin.  
Hinweis:  
Encrypted fields aren't audited by design. This behavior isn't configurable.

## Prozedur

1. Navigate to AllSystem DefinitionDictionary.  
   The system displays the list of dictionary entries. The list includes a row for each table as well as a row for each column (field) in the table.
2. In the list of dictionary entries, find the row corresponding to the table you want to audit, for example `cmdb_ci_computer`.  
   You can distinguish the row for the table itself -- versus a row for a column in the table -- by finding the row with the correct table name, an empty entry for the Column name, and a Type of Collection.
3. Select the dictionary entry for the table.  
   The system displays the dictionary entry form.
4. Check the Audit check box.
5. Select Update.

If you want to audit only a few fields in the table [Enable inclusion list auditing for a table](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/JCOblnUVn0iEogUCbu8Y1g "Enable a table to audit only those fields you explicitly designate. This is useful when you want to audit only a small number of fields in an audited table."). If you want to audit most -- but exclude some -- fields, see [Exclude a field from being audited (exclusion listing)](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/yuIrXztNDdknBR4HAFsN3g "Prevent the ServiceNow AI Platform from tracking a subset of fields in an audited table by excluding those fields from an audit.").
