Hi I'm wondering if anyone knows or has seen Microsoft documentation on what activating the "Reporting" feature within the Site Collection Features page will do? The reason I ask is I thought that activating it at the site collection level was required in order to use site collection usage and site usage reports. That's what MS's site says here: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc262541(office.12).aspx However I have one farm where those usage reports are available, but this site collection feature has not been activated. Usage logging was enabled through CA for the farm and usage reporting was enabled through CA for the SSP). This is a MOSS 2007 environment.

The reporting feature is not mandatory for the Usage report. but we need to activate this feature to view the audit log reports.

Thank you.
