Office 365 Global Administrator

Has anyone successfully setup Office365 logging without using the Global Administrator account? We have tried using a specific service account with reports reader and security reader permissions and that did not work. We have tried also setting that service account with the individual administrator roles (Sharepoint Admin, Exchange Admin, etc.) and that does not work also. We keep getting the following error.

We have given the account the access required.

I am not the O365 admin so my knowledge here is limited. Any help is appreciated.
