AuditRecord Attributes

An AuditRecord carries information pertaining to the creation, deletion, or modification of clinical data. This information includes who performed that action, and where, when, and why that action was performed.

AuditRecord information describes a change to clinical data, but is not itself clinical data. The value of some clinical data can always be changed by a subsequent transaction, but history cannot be changed -- only added to.

Whenever an element has a TransactionType (either explicit or inherited), an AuditRecord must be provided. However, an AuditRecord has no meaning in a Snapshot transfer.

As with the TransactionType attribute, an AuditRecord is inherited by any subelement that is allowed to have an AuditRecord and does not already have one attached.

Note: Contrast with Signature.
