The system logs any user activity in Eagle Data Services (EDS or EBS), Integration & Workflow Studio (IWS), and the EJM Monitoring Tool (MT) user interface (UI) applications into the database and makes that activity available for future retrieval and analysis. For example, it logs user activity such as add, update, and delete to provide an audit trail for such activity.

The applications use the estar.log_user_activity stored procedure, which appends the information into the pace_masterdbo.user_activity_log and pace_masterdbo.user_activity_log_detail tables. The log is available as a core query in System Management Center.

Before You Begin

The following components are required to use the user activity log:

• Eagle core product v17.2.18 or higher

• EagleML December 2019 or higher

• IWS v1.0.9.19, MT v1.0.9.13, EDS v2.0.9.12 or higher

Run the User Activity Log - EBS, IWS and MT Query

You can view the user activity log information by running a SQL query in PL SQL developer or in System Management Center's Queries workspace. The User Activity Log - EBS, ISW and MT query is available as a core query in System Management Center starting with the v17.2.20 release.

To run a system query for the user activity log:

1. In System Management Center, in the left navigation, click Diagnostics > Queries.
   You see a list of all the available system queries.

2. Enter a keyword for the Query Name in the filter text box, for example, enter user activity log.
   You see a list of available system queries based on the keyword.

5. Click Continue. 
   You see the Run Query Result page based on the parameters you entered. The output is sorted by activity date in descending order. An example follows.

   

View the User Activity Log When the Core Query is Unavailable

You can view the user activity log information for Core versions between v17.2.18 and v17.2.20 when the User Activity Log - EBS, IWS and MT query is not available.

To run a system query for the user activity log:

   You see the SQL Query workspace.

2. Use the following SQL statement to query the information.

   select 
uadet.activity_date, uadet.activity_type, uadet.object_type, uadet.object_name, uadet.activity_details,
ualog.app_id, ualog.instance, ualog.username, ualog.login_date, ualog.app_version 
      from pace_masterdbo.user_activity_log ualog
           inner join pace_masterdbo.user_activity_log_detail uadet on ualog.instance = uadet.pinstance
      where (ualog.app_id = 'EBS')
         and (uadet.activity_date > trunc(sysdate))
         and (uadet.activity_date < sysdate)
         and (ualog.username = 'eagleadmin')           
      order by uadet.activity_date desc

3. Click Run Query. 
   You see the information that met your criteria in the Result pane.

   The warning is intended to prevent concurrent changes and potential overwriting of somebody else's work. It is your responsibility to coordinate the changes with that other person.
   If you do not intend to make and save any changes, you can ignore the warning.
