Hi @Sonu Parab ,

If you can navigate to System Definition -> Dictionary

Then, search for your respective Table and fields where you want to enable the Audit History.

Open the Record and mark the "Audit" as "True".

Hi @Sonu Parab ,

OOTB certain tables are already audited already, if you wish to enbable auditing on more tables then be ware of DB size this can immensely increase and impact performance if enabled for CMDB and Assets table, as they keep receiving updates on scheduled basis. 

if you wish to enable then follow the steps given below by @Community Alums @AJ-TechTrek 

i hope this helps...

CMDB will have huge number of records. So make sure to enable the audit only for the CI classes for which you absolutely need it for any important business objective. Otherwise it might lead to performance issues.
