# Monitor user accessed securable objects

For each user, you can monitor the accessed securable objects. You can compare the accessed securable objects with the allocated securable objects. To limit license costs, you can remove permissions for not-accessed securable objects.

> [!NOTE]
> **Note**
> 
> To compare user accessed entry points with the permitted entry points, in the **Security and compliance studio parameters**, on the **Logs** tab, in the **Enable continuous user logging** field, select **Yes**. As a result, this is logged in the **User continuous log**:
> 
> - Accessed menu items and forms.
> - Access level: **Read**, **Write**, or **NA** (not applicable).
> - Operations performed on the accessed menu items and pages.
> 
> The data as shown on the **View access details** page is based on the **User continuous log**. See also: [Set Security and compliance studio parameters](/data-management/docs/set-security-and-compliance-studio-parameters)

### Steps

1. Click **Security management**.
2. Click **Security explorer**.
3. On the **Action Pane**, click **View access details**.
4. By default, all users, as defined in D365 F&SCM, are shown in the Users list. The users that are not enabled are highlighted.

You can choose to only show enabled users in the Users list.

Select the **Show enabled users only** check box.
5. Select the securable object type for which you want to monitor user access details.

In the **Security object** field, select an option.

> [!NOTE]
> **Note**
> 
> For roles, privileges, or duties, the access details are based on the accessed related entry points. For example, if an entry point is linked to two roles, both roles appear in the **Roles accessed** grid when the user accessed that entry point.
6. For each user, you can compare the accessed entry points with the permitted entry points.

In the **Users** list, find and select the desired user, and compare the permitted entry points with the accessed entry points.

> [!NOTE]
> **Note**
> 
> In the **Access** pane, by default, the accessed menu items are shown in descending order, first by the **Last accessed on** field and then by **No. of access** field. This helps you quickly see which entry points the selected user uses most and least. You can use this information to adjust roles or permissions based on usage patterns.
7. Close the page.
8. Close the page.
