User Access Example

To add a user to the system using the CA 2E user access aids, you might take the following steps:

  1. Decide which initial library list you want the new user to have, for example, a library list called LIBEL containing the following libraries:

    QTEMP QGPL Y1SY ORDENT

  2. Use the command Build Library List (YBLDLIBLST) to create the list:

    YBLDLIBLST LIBLST(LIBEL) LIBL(QTEMP QGPL Y1SY ORDENT)  TEXT(‘Library list for FRED’)

  3. Decide which initial menu or program you wish the user to have. For example, menu ORDENT in file YDSNMNU in library ORDENT.
  4. Use the Work with Menus (YWRKMNU) command to create the menu, if it does not already exist.

    YWRKMNU MENU(ORDENT)

  5. Decide what name you wish to give the new user profile; for example, FRED.
  6. Use the command Create User Profile (YCRTUSRPRF) to create the profile, specifying LIBEL as the initial library list, and ORDENT as the initial menu:

    YCRTUSRPRF USRPRF(FRED) TEXT(‘Fred’s user profile’) LIBLST(LIBEL) MENU(ORDE

  7. Teach FRED how to sign on
