Enter CONSDEF Macros

You use a series of CONSDEF macros to define each security table. Once the CONSDEF macros have been assembled and link-edited successfully for each table, the table definition is complete. The table goes into effect once the Defaults Table is updated. Instructions for updating the Defaults Table appear in Modifying the Defaults Table.

Before coding the CONSDEF macros, you should understand:

• How to use coding conventions
• How to specify a mask
• How CA Endevor SCM reads security definitions

Note: For more information about defining each security table, see How to Define the Access Security Table.

Note: If a user is in CA Endevor SCM while a security table is being updated or edited, the administrator must exit and reenter CA Endevor SCM in order for the new table to take effect.
