Set a system property to enable the Audit Roles table to create audit records related
to user roles.

## Before you begin

Role required: admin

## About this task

When enabled, the Audit Roles \[sys_audit_role\] table maintains changes to user records. For more information about role audits, see [Audit user roles](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=audit-user-roles&version=yokohama&pubname=yokohama-platform-administration&ft:locale=en-US). If the Contextual Security: Role Management V2 \[com.glide.role_management.inh_count\] plugin is installed, you must set a system property to true to enable role auditing.

## Procedure

1. Navigate to the System Properties \[sys_properties\] table.
2. Add the glide.role_management.v2.audit_roles system property and set it to true.  
   If the Contextual Security: Role Management V2 \[com.glide.role_management.inh_count\] plugin is installed, setting this property to true enables the Audit Roles \[sys_audit_role\] table to create
   records when user roles change. The table records role changes that occur after the property is set. Existing role assignments are not backfilled.
