What (exactly) is it that you would want logged? All commands executed by the user and/or all sub-commands that they may call? If so, SOME of that is captured in the console spooling, but not all (and console spooling can be easily changed by the user - for example #CP SPOOL CONSOLE STOP PURGE and poof, all gone). There is a product called CMAP (Command MAP) that is a configurable product that will intercept some/all SVC202's - I have used this several times in the past with excellent results. You can trap ALL SVC202's initially (and collect a TREMENDOUS amount of data), and look at all of the "benign" stuff that is of no interest (things like IDENTIFY, QUERY, etc.) and filter those SVC202's out. As you filter more and more unimportant data what emerges is a very, VERY accurate collection of data showing everything that was actually executed by the user, and how it was executed (i.e. from command line, called by another program, etc. etc.). Macro 4 in NJ is the current owner of the product, I believe it was originally either a VM Systems Group or Kolinar product.
