When EzeScan is installed the Audit Reporting Database Settings are set to use a local copy of the EzeScan_Audit MS Access database. 

If you want to use a centralised Audit Database with several EzeScan workstations you could simply place the Ezescan_Audit MS Access Database File (Ezescan_Audit.mdb) onto a network shared drive, and then configure each of the PC's to Admin->Options, Audit tab settings to use that network shared database file.  This is only recommended for low-volume usage, with a small number of Ezescan PC's.

If there a large number of Ezescan PC's then a better option, would be to create an Audit database on a networked MS SQL Server and then configure the EzeScan Audit Database ODBC connection to use that database rather than the local or network shared EzeScan_Audit.mdb file. You can find instructions on how to do so here: https://docs.ezescan.com.au/ekb/55-how-can-i-migrate-the-local-audit-database-from
