# Enable auditing for a system table

# Enable auditing for a system table {#ariaid-title1}

Release version: Australia  
Updated March 12, 2026  
![](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/portal-asset/ico-clock) 1 minute to read  
Deletions from tables with a sys_ prefix are not audited by default. To track
deletions from these tables, add the table name to the
glide.ui.audit_deleted_tables property. Enabling the Restore
Deleted Records plugin adds several default values to this property.

## Before you begin

Role required: admin

## Procedure

1. Navigate to AllSystem PropertiesUI Properties.
2. Locate the List of system tables (beginning with "sys_", comma separated) that will have the delete audited property.
3. Add or remove table names. Table names should be separated by commas, without any spaces.
4. Click Save.  
   Note:  
   For more information about auditing, see [Understanding the sys audit Table](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/uCY~PwZ4MWy_GWIV2B4D8g#c_UnderstandingTheSysAuditTable "The ServiceNow AI Platform tracks inserts and updates to audited records in the Sys Audit (sys_audit) and Audit Relationship Change (sys_audit_relation) tables.").
