User Trace 
The user trace is used to look for errors that occur with certain users and not with others. Trace information, located in the developer trace for each work process, is written to the user trace from the user view, if this option is activated.
Activate the user trace only as long as you need it to reproduce error situations, and then deactivate it. This prevents system performance from being affected and unnecessarily large trace files from being produced.
