Active Enforcement--Online

Based upon the runtime specifications made during online definition and maintenance, update of the data dictionary may or may not be allowed.

If an attempted entity name occurrence matches the naming standard template that is first in the search order for that entity, no errors result and the name is allowed.
If the attempted entity name occurrence does not match the first naming standard template, CA IDMS Enforcer searches through all remaining templates. If the attempted name complies with a template that is not first in the search order, the name is allowed and an informational message is registered.
If no templates match, CA IDMS Enforcer determines the best-fit template.
