Trying to do a two step verification to start a process.

Two users will have to badge scan.

I'd like to input their badge numbers with process started into the audit log.

Just not sure how to script a custom entry to the audit log.

Thank you!

Edit: looking at the dab table for the audit log, I might be able to write a query that adds a row and custom fill all the columns. as long as its the same name and datat type i think i'll be fine.

@pascal.fragnoud yeah does not look like they have something similay in 7.8 might have to manually write a query.
