Whether a field is updated by your end customer through the front-end interface, enriched via a third-party data provider, or manually amended by your compliance team in the back office, every modification is captured and audited in real time. Each change is presented with full details including the date, time, and the source of the update. This new feature makes this level of audit accessible at field level at a click of a button instead of having to trail through all the audits in the entity or application.
How It Works
Within the Form, users will now notice a new eye icon next to each field. By clicking on this icon, you can open a detailed log showing:
• A chronological history of all changes made to that specific field
• The previous and updated values
• The exact date and time of each change
• The source of the update — whether it was the end customer, a third-party data provider, or a back-office team member
This field-level granularity provides unparalleled transparency and makes it easy to track the full lifecycle of data points across your entire compliance process.
Key Benefits for Compliance Teams
1. Enhanced Transparency
This feature removes any ambiguity around when and how key data was modified. Your team will always know exactly who made each change and when — a critical requirement for internal audits and regulatory inspections.
2. Stronger Regulatory Compliance
With regulators demanding greater accountability over client data management, the Field-Level Audit Trail provides a ready-made solution. It ensures your institution can easily demonstrate full compliance with audit and reporting requirements, including GDPR, FATF recommendations, and jurisdiction-specific AML regulations.
3. Reduced Risk of Errors
Mistakes can happen — whether due to manual entry or incorrect third-party data. This feature allows your team to quickly trace back any discrepancies, identify the source, and revert changes if necessary, minimising operational risk.
4. Improved Operational Efficiency
Rather than digging through logs or escalating queries across departments, users can instantly access change histories directly within the form. This streamlines investigations, speeds up client onboarding reviews, and reduces friction across teams.
5. Audit Readiness On-Demand
Be audit-ready at all times. Whether responding to internal reviews or external regulator checks, your team can now view field-specific audit logs as evidence, saving time and avoiding compliance headaches.
At KYC Portal CLM, our mission is to empower regulated entities with tools that simplify complex compliance processes while strengthening control and oversight.
