Trick for producing a list of users and the transactions they have accessed

Describes how to produce a list of SAP users and their transactions to increase Basis administration productivity.

How can I produce a list of users and the transactions they have accessed for the past month? Is there any tool apart from turning the audit log on?

Without using SM19 and SM20 to turn auditing on and analyzing the audit logs, you basically have one option: ST03N. In ST03N you can use the User Profile under the Analysis Views section.

Just keep in mind that ST03N keeps limited data and it might not help you to go back one full month. Check the configuration parameters by switching to "Expert Mode" and looking under "Collector and Performance DB," "Statistics Records and Files".
