We have turned on MIMS auditing for some systems administration, supplier and HR/payroll files, 53 files in total. We are using some of the related MSZnnn RDL report programs.
We are finding the output reports very voluminous and not very appropriate for keeping for a year in case there is a need to look back that far. They are not well formatted for automated searching.
We are looking for an alternative form of output from MSF034. Our best idea so far is a flat file with one record per new, changed or deleted field - able to be searched with a text editor - able to be loaded into M/S Excel and sorted, filtered and searched by file, field, date or userid.
I modified MSZ203 to give what we want - nearly a day's work and 52 MSZs to go!
Is there a variation of GENAUD or MSGENAUD that will generate programs that then produce flat files such as described?
Clever ideas for maintaining and processing audit data?
