How does SP Item Auditing works?
Hello everybody, I have auditing enabled in my site and is not working properly. For example, if I access the document 2 times consecutively only one access is going to be logged. I suspect that theres some service or job that inserts the data into the AuditData Table because, it takes about 5 minutes to the record show up on the table. Do you guys have any clues how the Item auditing works?

Auditing, like most other things, are driven from the Service Jobs. Using STSADM you can execute: stsadm -o execadmsvcjobs to force any pending jobs in the queue to complete. I trust that answers your question... Thanks C http://www.cjvandyk.com/blog

I have tried the command but that's not the problem. The good news is that I've found some partern. Let's imagine I have a document library with 3 documents: A.doc, B.pdf and C.dot. If I click on document A and open, the AuditData table will not have the record relative to document A. Now, if access B.pdf, document A will show up on the AuditData. If I access C.dot, now B will be among the records. It seems that there's a queue where the last cocument accessed gets stucked. I dont know if it may help but there it goes the query I'm using to keep track of the table. DECLARE @BEGINDATE DATETIME DECLARE @ENDDATE DATETIME SET @BEGINDATE = '2010-08-17 00:00:00.000' SET @ENDDATE = '2010-08-17 23:59:59.000' SELECT tp_login , tp_Title , a.occurred as data, b.Leafname FROM auditData A JOIN AllDocs b ON b.Id = a.ItemId AND a.SiteID = b.SiteID JOIN userinfo ON tp_Id = a.userId AND a.SiteId = tp_SiteId WHERE a.Event = 3 AND ( a.occurred >= @BEGINDATE AND a.occurred <= @ENDDATE ) AND b.ListId IN (select tp_id from allLists where tp_title = 'Document_Library_Name') AND DocLibRowId IS NOT NULL AND b.ExtensionForFile IN ('doc' , 'docx', 'txt' , 'xlsx', 'xls' , 'gif' , 'jpg' , 'jpeg', 'pdf' , 'rar' , 'dot' , 'zip') GROUP BY tp_login , tp_Title , a.occurred, b.Leafname Any ideas?
