Using audit trail and reporting

This section describes how to view the Active Roles audit trail and how to work with Active Roles reports.

Analyze the Audit Trail

Active Roles provides a complete audit trail, showing who performed what actions and who tried to perform actions that were not permitted, and offers a rich suite of reports based on the audit trail.

Active Roles creates the audit trail by generating events and recording them into the Active Roles Admin Service event log. You can use Event Viewer to examine events in that log, or you can use Active Roles reports to perform an in-depth analysis of the audit trail.

Examine the audit trail using event viewer

To view details about an Active Roles event

  1. On the computer running the Active Roles Administration Service, open Event Viewer.
  2. In the console tree, under Application and Services Logs, select the Active Roles Admin Service log.
  3. In the details pane, right-click an event, and then click Event Properties.
