As in title. Status\_Code and Originating\_Context are a bit obscure. I understand `Originating_Context` stores what scope the event was logged from, Designer, Perspective session, etc. but there’s nowhere I can find in the user manual to see what these enum values correspond to. I have no idea what `Status_Code` means @Paul.Scott ---

`Status_Code` is a serialized value from an [`AuditStatus`](https://files.inductiveautomation.com/sdk/javadoc/ignition81/8.1.15/com/inductiveautomation/ignition/common/util/AuditStatus.html), for backwards compatibility reasons. `Originating_Context` uses the flags from [`ApplicationScope`](https://files.inductiveautomation.com/sdk/javadoc/ignition81/8.1.15/com/inductiveautomation/ignition/common/model/ApplicationScope.html). ---

It looks like there was already some existing content in the manual describing the fields. Which makes me think they’re not as visible as they should be. I added some additional links to the content. Bonus, I wasn’t a fan of the descriptions there, so I updated them and added some links to the javadoc page’s PGriffith mentioned. Not certain which manual you’re looking at, but here’s a couple of links: [8.0](https://docs.inductiveautomation.com/display/DOC80/Auditing+Actions+Reference#AuditingActionsReference-AuditTableDefinition) [8.1](https://docs.inductiveautomation.com/display/DOC81/Ignition+Database+Table+Reference#IgnitionDatabaseTableReference-AUDIT_EVENTS) ---

> [@paul-griffith](#): > > value from an [`AuditStatus`](https://files.inductiveautomation.com/sdk/javadoc/ignition81/8.1.15/com/inductiveautomation/ignition/common/util/AuditStatus.html) lol @ that javadoc page description 😆
