The hidden cost of weak audit trail
When you can’t show a document’s history, audits get slow and stressful, and compliance risk grows.
The problem stays hidden until someone asks a question you can’t answer.















































A document audit trail is a complete record of every action taken on a document: who did what, and when. It lets you prove a document’s history to an auditor, a regulator or a partner.
Webware creates this record automatically. It logs each view, change and signature, so the history is there when you need it.

Yes. Webware shows who accessed a document and when.

As soon as you can collect the needed records with histories.
Every action - from view to change to signature - is automatically recorded as it happens, so it is available for each and every . Instead of chasing emails and people, you find the document quickly, open the document and collect the data like that.
No, audit trail is secure and can't be edited.
The compliant audit trail builds automatically and users can’t change or remove it. That’s what makes it reliable in an audit or a dispute.
Yes, all views will be logged - you can see clearly who viewed the document.
Webware logs views as well as changes and signatures. For sensitive records, knowing who opened a document matters as much as knowing who changed it. It’s recorded automatically.
The history follows the same access rights as the document.
People see only what they’re allowed to see. Access can be granted with private individuals or in groups.
Audit records are kept as long as the document itself: through active use, archiving and the retention period set for that document type.
Audit records are stored with the documents themselves, inside your own Webware environment: EU-hosted single-tenant SaaS, or on-premise - your choice. Each customer's data is isolated.
