DoliAudit — The Audit Trail for Your Dolibarr Changes

Who changed what, when, and what was the value before and after?

In an ERP system used daily by multiple employees, data is constantly changing. An invoice amount is corrected. An order changes status. A third-party record is updated. A product price is modified.

A few days later, the same question often comes up: Who made this change?

DoliAudit addresses this issue by adding comprehensive change tracking and audit logging to Dolibarr.

The module automatically records important events and allows you to identify the user, date, affected object, modified field, and values before and after the change.

Clear and Actionable Change Tracking

DoliAudit does more than simply indicate that an object has been modified. It allows you to understand exactly what changed.

Example

Invoice FAC-2026-0042

In just a few seconds, you can identify exactly where the change came from.

Key Features

Automatic Change History

Events are automatically captured using Dolibarr's native triggers.

The main supported actions include:

• Object creation
• Object modification
• Object deletion
• Status changes
• Custom events through the API

No modification to the Dolibarr core is required.

Before / After Comparison

DoliAudit uses Dolibarr's native oldcopy mechanism to compare the previous state of an object with its new state.

Only fields that have actually changed are recorded. This approach provides a precise audit history while avoiding unnecessary records.

Filterable Global Audit History

A dedicated page allows you to search through all recorded events.

Available filters allow you to quickly find audit events based on:

• User
• Object type
• Reference
• Date
• Modified field
• Action
• Previous value
• New value
• IP address
• Source module

Results are paginated to maintain good performance, even with a large audit history.

Object Timeline

Each object can have its own timeline, allowing you to view the complete history of an invoice, order, product, third party, or other supported object.

This view is particularly useful for understanding the sequence of changes made by different users over time.

Cross-Object Auditing

DoliAudit is designed as a generic audit trail layer. It can be used with various Dolibarr objects, including:

• Third parties
• Products
• Orders
• Invoices
• Projects
• Contacts
• Other objects compatible with the module's triggers

The goal is to centralize change tracking in a single tool rather than relying on scattered and separate histories.

IP Address and Context

Depending on your configuration, DoliAudit can also record the IP address associated with an event.

This information provides additional context when more detailed tracking of operations is required.

Data Retention Management

The module provides retention management to help control the size of your audit history.

You can define a retention period in days or keep audit records indefinitely.

A dedicated method also allows the cleanup process to be automated through Dolibarr's scheduled tasks.

Compatibility

• Dolibarr 18 to 24
• PHP 7.4 to 8.4
• MySQL
• MariaDB
• Installation as an external Dolibarr module

Why Choose DoliAudit?

A standard history often tells you that an object exists or has been modified. DoliAudit tells you how it has changed.

It allows you to quickly answer essential questions such as:

• Who modified this invoice?
• When did this order change status?
• What was the previous value?
• Which user deleted or modified this data?
• What changes have been made to this object since it was created?

DoliAudit transforms changes made in your ERP into a clear, centralized, and actionable audit history.
