Customizing Audit Log Report - Adding/Removing Columns from Display

Hi All -
Has anyone tried adding/removing the columns from Out of Box Auditi Log report with minor customizations to the code/configuration files ? Right now , when the Audit Log report is executed, there are numbe of columns that appear on report (Server, Client IP etc) which are too technical for the client and requirement is remove some of these and add some more for the attributes that we are audit logging through Audit workflow service. If you have done something similar in the past, please provide me with some inputs. Any sample code, examples will be highly appreciated.

Hello Gurus,
I also have same kind of requirement.WE have to send a monthly report to customer where number of users created and deleted to be given to them.
Its urgent.Please help
Thanks in advance

Removing audit log report fields

Hi all,
Can we customized the fields shown in the audit log reports? They are very technical, and some just have no value most of the time, and I need all the columns fit in one page. If possible I want to have the original kept intact, meaning creating a new custom audit log report based on the orginal one. thanks in advance.

Can you please confirm that you have configured events to audit?

Adding/removing columns in jtable

Hello everyone,
i was looking for a way to add/remove columns from a jtable. The way i envision it working is... Initially have a predefined number of columns, of these only show the user say 5 of those on startup. but then provide a drop down (or list box etc) of the other column headings, so that when the user selects one... it adds it to the jtable. also to remove ..... is there a way to have a pop-up when the user right-clicks the table header and put a option to remove that column there? if not what is the best way to trigger a remove of a column? So i need a way to keep track of all the columns in case the user wants to add it again. anyone know how this can be done or any part of it?

I need a intutive way for the user to remove a column from the gui (like with adding could be a dropdown box with column headers as labels).Create a custom ComboBoxModel. This model would simply contain TableColumns and display the header value in the combo box. The first combo box would display the currently showing columns. When you click on an item in the combo box:
a) remove the TableColumn from the TableColumnModel
b) remove the TableColumn from the model
c) add the TableColumn to the "hidden" combo box model
The same basic logic (but in reverse) would then apply when you click on the "hidden" combo box.

Runtime error for Audit Log reports

Hi,
I have activated Reports feature at Site Collection level and then tried to run custom report for Dashboard library under Audit Log Reports but I got Run Time error. I tried on my local machine and on server.
Can any body let me know how to resolve this issue to get custom report?
Any help would be appreciated.
BELOW IS THE ERROR MESSAHE:
Server Error in '/' Application
Runtime Error
Description: An application error occurred on the server. The current custom error settings for this application prevent the details of the application error from being viewed remotely (for security reasons). It could, however, be viewed
by browsers running on the local server machine.
Details: To enable the details of this specific error message to be viewable on remote machines, please create a <customErrors> tag within a "web.config" configuration file located in the root directory of the current web application.
This <customErrors> tag should then have its "mode" attribute set to "Off".

<configuration>
<system.web>
<customErrors mode="Off"/>
</system.web>
</configuration>
Notes: The current error page you are seeing can be replaced by a custom error page by modifying the "defaultRedirect" attribute of the application's <customErrors> configuration tag to point to a custom error page URL.

<configuration>
<system.web>
<customErrors mode="RemoteOnly" defaultRedirect="mycustompage.htm"/>
</system.web>
</configuration>

The audit log reporting is kind of tricky to work with...until you know what you're doing.
Some things to check: Do you have the Reporting feature enabled? Do you have auditing enabled on sites in this site collection? Have any events been triggered that would have written to the audit logs? Did you specify an output library
for the report? Will the report have any data?
Also, look at the SharePoint logs in C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\14\LOGS\ and let us know any "Unexpected" errors.

Usage Report and Audit Log report showing different totals

I am trying to understand the differences displayed in two similar reports. The first report is an 'Audit Log' Report and it is displaying the number of Resource Account creations over a time period. The second report is a Usage Report using the exact same criteria (objectType = Resource Account and Action = Create). The totals I get back are VASTLY different. Can anyone explain? Is this a known bug?

Hi,
In any report we don't show the storage policies information. In Cost report if the storage policies have different rate factors then we will show the split for the storage information. But in usage report , rate factors will not be applicable as we don''t show the cost details. Hope this clarifies your question. Please let us know if you need more information.
Thanks,

Add and remove columns from JTable

Help me please!
A try to remove column from JTable. It's removed, but when I try to add column in table, then I get all old (removed early) columns + new column....
I completely confused with it.....
Here is my code for remove column:
class DelC implements ActionListener
          public void actionPerformed (ActionEvent e )
               int [] HowManyColDelete = table.getSelectedColumns();
               if (HowManyColDelete.length !=0)
                    TableColumnModel tableCModel = table.getColumnModel();
                    for (int i = HowManyColDelete.length-1; i>-1; i--)
                         table.getColumnModel().removeColumn (tableCModel.getColumn (HowManyColDelete [ i ]));
               else
                      JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(JOptionPane.getRootFrame(), "Column is not selected!");
     }

It's little ex for me, I just try understand clearly how it's work (table models i mean). Here is code. All action with tables take place through menu items.
My brain is boiled, I've try a lot of variants of code, but did't get right result :((
It's code represent problem, which I've describe above. If you'll try remove column and then add it again, it will be ma-a-a-any colunms...

But now I have not any decision of my problem...
Thanks a lot for any help. :)

'Content viewing' in 'Audit Log reports' throws timout error

I have enabled 'Reports' in the site collection features and I am tryin gto generate the 'Content viewing' in 'Audit Log reports'. This keeps me waiting for a couple of minutes and throws a timeout error. Could you please let me know why is this happening
and is there any way to resolve it ?
I am getting the below error in UI and in my logging database
System.Exception
Reason: Request timed out. URL:
https://Mydomain/Mysitecollection/_layouts/RunReport.aspx/Content_viewing.xml
Thank you
Regards Rahul A

Hi,
According to your issue, firstly, please check if your hardware performance is poor or the site collection has numerous data, if so, improve the hardware or pull the
data out of the tables, then check the effect.
Secondly, if you cannot view audit reports for the site http://servername /sites/sitename
Try to detach and attach content database for the site you want to view, then check the effect.
Thanks,
