I am trying to log all workbench activity like experience manager changes, thesaurus changes etc. I have enabled webstudio audit.
### webstudio auditing
log4j.logger.com.endeca.etools.webstudio.audit=ALL, auditfile
log4j.additivity.com.endeca.etools.webstudio.audit=true
But what is logged in webstudio_audit.log is just login tries related information.
What is the proper configuration in order to achieve the above result?

Playing around in cognos Administration, I wasn’t able to see anywhere to export the Report Run Logs. Clicking on a successful Report, I’m able to see there were email recipients, but only the number of them, not who got the report:
so
is it possible to export the report logs in cognos?
Does it include recipients?
Can we automate that log to be sent to others?
You need to setup an Audit Store in Cognos configuration, and turn your logging levels up on your dispatcher in order to get detailed logs.
This isn't much of a programming question, but I figure some here would know the answer.
I'm trying to setup the Suitecloud IDE, but you have to enable Web Services. Does it cost anything to do so? Our consultant keeps telling us that we have to buy another account to do so, whereas the Netsuite Tech Support seemed to indicate that it is free.
I'm just wondering what the cost is.
No it is free.
Go to Setup > Enable Features > Suitecloud (tab) > Web Services (check box).
You have to give roles (or global permissions to users) permission to use Web Services.
You can get the IDE from the help section. Search SuiteCloud IDE and it will come up.
SuiteCloud (Customization, Scripting, and Web Services) > SuiteCloud IDE > SuiteCloud IDE Overview
As far as I know, your consultant is wrong or at least isn't being clear.
Enabling Web Services(SuiteTalk) doesn't change your licensing costs at all.
When you connect to NetSuite using web services, you do so using a user account. So in that way, each IDE user would need a license. In most situations however, if the developers already have access to the NetSuite UI, and are therefore consuming a license, it works fine to have them connect with the IDE using the same credentials and thus the same account. That's what we do anyway.
What's more, you could probably (technically; if not necessarily within the letter of the license agreement) share a single license across all the IDE users. You would lose all audit control over who made what changes and you could conceivably run into conflicts with multiple users trying to interact with the account at the same time.
Bottom line: SuiteTalk doesn't cost extra to turn on. Anyone with a normal Netsuite user login can use the IDE at no extra cost.
Under 'Settings' -> 'System' -> 'Auditing' -> 'Audit Summary View' , how to export the data into an excel spreadsheet? There is no export option. Only Advanced Find that does not help me export the data I want.
Help would be appreciated!
Thanks!
You don't - Microsoft hasn't exposed the export functionality for audit data - potentially because of how it is stored in the database (XML blobs)
If you have development skills, you could use the SDK to retrieve values:
Sample: Audit Entity Data Changes
Otherwise if you are On Premise - you could see about creating a SSRS report.
CRM 2011 - reports on data auditing
This is certainly a commonly identified gap in the Audit Log functionality. Here's a great solution to viewing user audit information. Thank you Brett! If you're looking to extend this his RDL files give you a great head start.

My client needed to specifically download the user access portion of the Audit Log, so I combined the two reports into one by adding the [First(createdon)] column to the UserLoginCount report. Then not only do I see when the users last logged on but also get a feeling of relative usage based on number of logons in a given period.
This can be done with the MSCRM Toolkit tool which is available at http://mscrmtoolkit.codeplex.com/ . You would setup a connection to your organization and then use the Audit Export Manager tool in this tool kit to export out your Audit Summary records (you could also choose to export the detail records as well).
This tool lets you export to CSV, XML, or Excel XML formats and can filter by dates, user(s), Actions, Operations, and by entities which are enabled for auditing. This way if you only need to see certain audit records, you can filter it before exporting. You can even save profiles of these filter conditions, making it easy if you always need to supply an audit of "last 1 month" to auditors for compliance or for other conditions. I've also used it to export out the user access for the last day to help in determining if a system was in use or not (to know if it was safe to restart the server or services).
I can confirm I've been able to use this in the latest CRM 2015 update 1 Online orgs without an issue to export the Audit Summary records and also works with the older CRM 2011 and CRM 2013 organizations.
I'd agree that this should just be something that is built into Microsoft CRM, but for now, this tool fits the bill to help fill the gap in functionality.
I have a legacy content database of SharePoint 2007 which I need to upgrade to SharePoint 2010 (and then SP2013) and I feel it is not in support mode. SP Admins pull information out using Select statements in Stage and I feel they might have put the database in unsupported mode.
Is there a way I can determine if the content db that I am trying to migrate has already been in unsupported mode?
There is no "support mode" in the database, it is just that Microsoft will not give you support if you have a database that has been altered manually.
Essentially you are on your own if migration does or does not work...
I'd like to order a set of webpages showing inside a content query webpart by 'most viewed' I know sharepoint keeps track of such things but I don't know how to expose this list to the content query web part - can anyone point me in the right direction?
Thanks in advance
It is true that SharePoint can log user visits to the usage log on disk and the audit log in the content database. But there is no API for issuing report building queries against the data like a query for most viewed pages. You will need to develop or buy:
Develop: You could turn on the audit log for your site collection(s) and develop a batch job that on a scheduled basis scans it for new entries and updates a custom list holding the most viewed pages. See Reading Entries from the Audit Log in Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 for more information on working with the audit log.
Buy: For a more flexible reporting solution and to avoid development, you could take a look at some third-party reporting solutions for SharePoint like Nintex, Cardiolog or MAPIlab.
