Microsoft Documentation
This event is generated when a logoff is initiated. No further user-initiated activity can occur. This event can be interpreted as a logoff event.
The main difference with event 4634 (An account was logged off) is that the 4647 event is generated when a logoff procedure was initiated by specific account using the logoff function, whereas 4634 event shows that a session was terminated and no longer exists.
4647 is more typical for Interactive and RemoteInteractive logon types when user was logged off using standard methods. You will typically see both 4647 and 4634 events when logoff procedure was initiated by user.
It may be positively correlated with event 4624 (An account was successfully logged on) using the Logon ID value. Logon IDs are only unique between reboots on the same computer.
