Signon Screen—SIGN

Description

The Signon screen enables you to:

• Sign on to the valid catalog for the desired ASF system.
• Sign on as an authorized ASF user.
• Sign on with the appropriate password.
• Sign on to ASF as a different user than the one you are currently signed on as.

Access

You can access the Signon screen in one of the following ways:

• Enter the task code ASF from DC/UCF; the Signon screen is displayed if your DC/UCF signon is not sufficient to access the ASF system.
• Select the Signon function from the Activity Selection screen; you can select the function by pressing [PF14].
• Enter the screen name SIGN from any other ASF screen.

You can exit the Signon screen in one of the following ways:

• If signon is successful, the Activity Selection screen is displayed. You can begin the ASF session as the signed-on user.
• If signon is unsuccessful, press [Clear] to leave ASF and return to DC/UCF.
• If you are already signed on and make no changes on the Signon screen, press [Clear] to return to the prior screen or enter a screen name in the upper left corner of the screen to move to another screen. You can resume the current ASF session.

User Name

By default, contains the user ID used to sign on to DC/UCF. You can sign on to ASF as a different user by replacing the default DC/UCF user ID with a different user ID.
