Hello
On sql server log I see
Login succeeded for user 'user name here'. Connection made using SQL Server authentication. [CLIENT: <named pipe>]
While this user is off line and on vacation. How this is happening?
How I know which object, using this connection? Or how to find out what is going on
Thanks

Someone is using that person's login. Simple as that. She's either given someone her password or the other person has guessed it.

With the data returned by the stored procedure that you have, you can get the host name (machine) and use that to try and ID who's using that login.
