Usability Features › Set Dialog Defaults

Set Dialog Defaults

The Quick-Edit Dialog Defaults panel specifies user preferences for allocated space for work and list data sets, the listing data set string that identifies list data sets, the threshold for the Execution Report, and the whether the ISPF browse or view display services is used. Default values are set by your CA Endevor SCM administrator, but you can change the default values for your user ID on the Quick-Edit Dialog Defaults panel. These values remain in effect from session to session, until you change them again. Changes made to the Quick Edit Dialog Defaults panel are reflected in the standard User Defaults panel. Also, any changes made to the User Defaults panel are reflected on the Quick Edit Dialog Defaults panel.
