Does anyone know if there is a report available that will summarize the SAP audit logs into a table? What we need is a summary of all the transactions accessed by each user over a time period. Also how many times a particular user accessed each transaction over the time period. Say time period is a day.
We have configured our ERP system to log transaction starts per user. This is providing us the necessary information we need, except that it is creating a massive amount of rows, which needs to be exported to create the needed report in Excel. What I would like to do is to run a summary each night to summarize the log files as mentioned above. We can then run our analysis on that particular table. Does anyone know of such a report?
If not , has anyone done something like this?

try: 1. RSAU_SELCT_EVENTS 2. create Z program based on RSAU_READ_AUDITLOG_EXTERNAL 3. create Z program based on ST03N as mentioned by Jan.

Hello,
what is with the data you can get get via ST03N? There you can find transactions per user.

Hi Jan,
It is true that with ST03N you can go to each user and see which transactions they ran, but you cannot view or export the data for all users. The background is that we want to redo our security profiles and so the ability to see all transactions ran by all users, will help us to group our transactions better. The only thing is that you need to cover end of month, quarter and year transactions if you really want to do it right.

I've been frustrated by this very thing for some time. The audit logs would be much more useful if they were available in the DB, and not just in external files. There are good reasons for them being external, I know.
It shouldn't be too hard to make a copy of the code for SM20 and get it to store the data in a custom table. It already creates an internal table to build the ALV Grid on. I've never got around to doing it though. I don't suppose it would take too long if you asked one of your local developers to do that.

Hi Steve,
thanks for the reply. It would be nice if there is a easy way to summarize the data. I will wait another day or two. Hopefully someone has gone through the trouble already. Otherwise I will need to get a developer involved.
