What can I do with this system value?

This system value specifies the default object auditing value of newly created objects. The object auditing value of an object determines whether an auditing entry is sent to the system auditing journal in the QSYS library when the object is used or changed. The auditing entry is sent to the auditing journal only if auditing is currently active on the system. To start auditing, select Activate action auditing on the System page.

This system value has the following options:

None (*NONE): No auditing entries are sent for the object when it is used or changed.
User settings (*USRPRF): Auditing entries are sent for the object when it is used or changed by a user who is currently being audited. If the user who uses or changes this object is not being audited, no auditing entries are sent.
Changes to objects (*CHANGE): Auditing entries are sent for the object when it is changed.
All access of objects (*ALL): Auditing entries are sent for the object when it is used or changed.
Not available (*NOTAVL): This value is displayed if the user does not have authority to view the auditing value. You cannot set the system value to Not available (*NOTAVL). This value is only displayed when a user accessing the system value does not have either All object (*ALLOBJ) or Audit (*AUDIT) special authority.
