You can specify which SQL events you want to audit at the database level. IDERA SQL Compliance Manager applies these settings to the audited database on the registered SQL Server instance.
You can configure database audit settings when you add a new database or later as your auditing needs change. For more information about individual SQL events, see Microsoft SQL Server Books Online.
