Parsing audit log SAP

hello team,

there was a need to analyze SAP audit logs. A filebeat was installed on the machines to transfer logs from to logstash.
Format of audit logs - a file is created every day and data is written in one line (message 200 characters) - file size can reach 200-500MB

The filebeat configuration is simple - the path to the logs and then redirecting them to the logstash.
I want the logs to be divided into a message of 200 characters and parsed.
My basic config is like this, but it's incomplete, I don't know what to do next

input {
  beats{
    port => 5044
  }
}
filter {
    mutate {
       gsub => [ "message", "2AU", "\n2AU" ]}
    split {
        field => "message"
    }
    grok {
        patterns_dir => ["/etc/logstash/conf.d/patterns"]
        match => { "message" => "%{VERS:version}%{MESSAGEID:messageid}%{DATE:date}%{TIMESTAMP:timestamp}%{OSPID:os_pid}%{SAPPID:sap_pid}%{LOGONTYPE:logontype}%{SAPPIDHEX:sap_pid_hex}%{SERVER:server}%{USERNAME:username}%{TRANS:transaction}%{REPORT:report}%{MANDAT:mandat}%{SESSIONID:sessionid}%{PARAMETERS:parameters}%{TERMINAL:terminal}" }
    }

output {
  elasticsearch {
        hosts => ["https://elasticsearch:9200"]
          index => "%{[@metadata][beat]}-%{+yyyy.MM}"
          user => "user"
          password => "password"
         }
}

Am I heading in the right direction? since it doesn't work? :slight_smile:
