Selected operations performed in QPR Portal can be recorded into a log file called "WASUserAudit.txt". If logging is enabled, the log file is generated to the "Audit" folder under the log folder that can be defined in the Server log settings of the Common section in the QPR Configuration Manager utility. To enable logging, launch QPR Configuration Manager, select Server log settings from the Common section, and select Basic logging enabled or Full logging enabled from the User audit log settings for QPR Web Application Server. By default, the logging is off.

•Logging out
•Opening a model
•Session timeout
With the Full logging, the following operation is logged in addition to the operations mentioned above:
•Opening a view
