# Audit a Payment Order

> 🚧 Data Retention Policy
>
> The Modern Treasury dashboard offers easy access to 4 months of live audit record data and 2 months of sandbox data, while older audit records can be exported on the [Audit Trail](/platform/docs/audit-trail) page by your organization’s administrators.

Every Payment Order initiated through Modern Treasury includes an audit trail to record the user or API key that performed a given action. Audit records are generated when a payment is created, approved, denied, redrafted, updated, or otherwise modified. The audit trail is immutable, meaning the log of changes cannot be modified.

## Access a Payment Order's audit trail

1. Login to [Modern Treasury](https://www.app.moderntreasury.com/)
2. Navigate to the Payment Order overview page
3. Find, and click, the Payment Order you want to audit
4. In the bottom right Timeline panel, click "Audits"
