Hello, with the advice from Alex, we managed to add a custom field to the access.log, using an always matching "annotate_transaction" ACL.
We had to add the ACL on each line of our rulesets and the value inserted was the rule_name.
Then, by adding %{name}note in a custom logformat, we were able to display the rule matching each line in the access.log.
Thank you for your help Alex.
Regards,
Xavier

Since many squid.conf directives are driven by ACLs, a typical
transaction often matches dozens of rules, explicit and implicit ones.
There is no %code that correctly guesses which matching rule should be
logged.
However, you can define an always-matching annotate_transaction ACL and
add it to any rule (or multiple rules). Specific or all transaction
annotations can then be logged (or sent to helpers, etc.) using %note
logformat code.
Untested example:
acl markAsSpecial annotate_transaction category=special
acl markAsBad annotate_transaction category=bad
...
http_access allow goodClients
http_access allow specialClients markAsSpecial
http_access deny to_localhost markAsBad
...
logformat timereadable %tl %note{category} %un %Ss ...
* annotate_transaction ACL type is documented at
http://www.squid-cache.org/Doc/config/acl/
* %note logformat code is documented at
http://www.squid-cache.org/Doc/config/logformat/
HTH,
Alex.
