Security Event Log Success Logons Reports
The Success Logons Reports enable you to scan the consolidated log database for various successful logon Event IDs. This report is typically used by compliance and audit professionals while auditing domain controllers and stand-alone servers.
Server Manager includes two methods to report successful Windows logins:
Method | Description |
---|---|
One-Off Successful Logons Report | Parses event IDs: 4624, 4634, 4647 and 4768, filters Logon Types, displays each successful login or the total number of successful logins grouped by user and Logon Type, then finally and optionally generates a summary table along with tables for each selected Event ID. This report is supported on all locales. |
Generic Successful Logons Report | Uses Regular Expressions to parse Security Event Log Entries, extract values, validate subject and target accounts in Active Directory, then finally filter entries using Event Log Filters. This report is only supported on English locales. |
How to configure the One-Off Successful Logons Report
- From the Explorer View, navigate to Reports | Sample Reports | Event Logs | Security Reports | Management, right click on Successful Logons Report then select Properties. The Properties View displays.

Use the Filters drop-down to select all of the filters you would like to apply to the report.
To target specific columns (e.g. New Logon Account Name), create a Complex Event Log Filter then, create a new Attribute Value Pair Criteria, specify the column's key (e.g. TARGET_ACCOUNT_NAME) then, specify the account name or regular expression to target. Sample regular expression driven new interactive and remote logon excluding built-in DWM accounts filter -
Once a filter is assigned, use the Include entries that pass drop-down to select the filter method.
The following filter options are available:
Option Description All Include each entry that passes all assigned filters. Any Include each entry that passes any filter. None Include each entry that does not pass any of the filters. Ignore Include all entries. -
Use the Apply filter frequency rules to display the Latest or Oldest entry when it occurs more than X times every X periods.
A unique instance of these settings is attached to each assigned filter. Select the Filter to apply each instance's settings. -
Use the Duplicates controls to group entries by Source and Event ID then display Latest or Oldest entry along with a count of entries in each group.
