$ sacct -j 1156

1156         run_zacar+ HPC_4_Days       root          1    RUNNING      0:0

You can list jobs by user, by adding the -u flag and choosing the user.

You can also filter or create your own custom reports by using the --format flag and choosing what data to show.

$ sacct --format=User,JobID,Jobname,partition,state,time,start,end,elapsed,MaxRss,MaxVMSize,nnodes,ncpus,nodelist

There is also the possibility to filter you custom report by user and date, you just have to add the -u and --start flags.

$ sacct --format=User,JobID,Jobname,partition,state,time,start,end,elapsed,MaxRss,MaxVMSize,nnodes,ncpus,nodelist -u zbenta --start 2019-11-28

You can also use the flags to give you a report during a specific time interval, just use the --start and --end flags.
