Profile Manager

The Profile Manager, TIRPROF, is a CA Gen provided runtime routine that saves information in the following situations:

• During a link and return
• When a screen supports scrolling
• Retaining the values of hidden fields on a screen
• Processing HELP and PROMPT requests
• When restarting an application

The Profile Manager saves information in a Profile Database. The Profile Database is a temporary runtime pushdown stack that stores the export views of procedure steps. CA Gen maintains one stack per business system per user.

Note: A potential for problems can arise if you open multiple sessions within a single business system using the same User ID. You can modify the User ID user exit to return the terminal ID as the User ID used in the key to the Profile Database. This helps to avoid the contention when using the Profile Manager.
