The edit log
Every change to your books, on the record.
Edit or delete an invoice, a payment, an expense, a journal voucher, a ledger account — or dozens of other record types — and Finocket captures it automatically: who, when, and the record exactly as it was before. Append-only, non-disableable, and enforced below the app so it can't be quietly switched off.
What each entry captures
Not a vague 'modified' flag — the three things an auditor actually needs.
Who made the change
Every entry records the acting user, so a change is never anonymous — you can always see whose hands were on the record.
When it happened
A timestamp is stamped on every entry at the moment of the change, giving your CA an exact chronology to reconcile against.
The full before-image
The record is captured exactly as it stood before the edit or deletion — the complete prior version, not just a note that 'something changed'.
Built to be trusted, not just present
An audit trail is only worth anything if it can't be edited, deleted or turned off. This one can't.
Every edit and deletion, captured
Change or delete an invoice, a payment, an expense, a journal voucher, a ledger account, a TDS challan, a fixed asset, a work order — and dozens more record types — and the log records it automatically. There's no button to remember and nothing to switch on.
Append-only, never rewritten
Entries are only ever added. A correction is a new row, not an edit of an old one, so the history can't be quietly reshaped after the fact.
Non-disableable, enforced by the database
The log lives at the database layer, below the app. It isn't a setting you (or anyone) can turn off, and even a direct write can't bypass it.
The audit trail your CA expects
Indian accounting rules increasingly require software to keep a non-disableable edit log of every change to the books, with the date of each change. Finocket keeps one across your books — money entries, journal vouchers and ledger masters alike — and your CA can read it directly.
The edit log — FAQ
Every update or deletion across your books — invoices, payments, expenses, journal vouchers, ledger accounts and account groups, opening balances, TDS challans, fixed assets and depreciation, deferral schedules, approvals, work orders and work-in-progress entries, and dozens of other record types. Each entry stores who made the change, the exact time it happened, and the full before-image of the record — the complete version as it stood just before the change.
No. It's enforced at the database, not the app, so it isn't a preference anyone can disable. That's the point — an audit trail you could switch off wouldn't be one your CA could rely on.
The log captures changes and deletions — the moments where a record's history matters most. The record itself, plus the log of every later change to it, together tell the full story.
It's an append-only edit log enforced by the database: entries can't be altered or removed from the app, and a correction is always a new row. It records who changed what and when — it isn't a cryptographic signature, and we don't claim to be tamper-proof in that sense.
Indian rules increasingly expect accounting software to keep an edit log of every change to the books, with the date of each change and no ability to disable it. Finocket keeps exactly that kind of record across your books — money entries, journal vouchers, ledger masters and more.
