We accomplished this task by writing a simple Active Link that captures every 
user last login time no matter what their license type. We put this code on the 
Home Page which we force all users to start with and they can't bypass it. We 
store this value on the People form for reporting purpose.

Terry,
One problem I have with the BMC's provided historical license usage form is 
that it doesn't cover 'all' users...only users with write licenses...why does 
this matter you ask?  Well, Read and Read Restricted users are completely valid 
users of the system, but because their licenses don't cost anything, BMC 
doesn't deign it necessary to track their usage.  As such, you can't track 
'all' of your users through this method.  A simple Active Link that makes a 
service call to a login audit form any time 'selected' forms are opened will 
track all of your users that utilize 'main' forms.

You can investigate this:
On the ARSystem Server configuration tab - enable the field : License Tracking

Peridocially check the form called " ARSystem Administration: License Review" 
form for entries (userids) that do not appear in this form that appear in your 
User or appropriate CTM:People form.  A quick outer join would give you the 
details.

Check the admin manual for details on the License Tracking setting.

Hi Guys,

Is there a way to determine when a user last logged into Remedy/ITSM without 
having to enable the user logs. Basically I want to identify any user accounts 
that have not logged into Remedy in X months.

We have a multi-tenant ITSM 8.1 environment and do not have full control of our 
user base leaving procedures. So if someone with a Remedy account was to leave 
one of our customers and they do not notify us then that persons account will 
remain active. To mitigate against this we are planning to supply the customers 
with an active users report to check and want to include the last time they 
each logged on and any other useful information.
There is the user-cache table which has a timestamp column but that only seems 
to be updated when the user account is updated/changed and not when they login.

Any ideas how I could achieve this or how do you identify unused accounts?

Thanks
Tony
