MAPTYPE Statement Usage

Defining an Alternative Map Table

Each entry in an alternative map table consists of a pair of map names. At application runtime, DC/UCF substitutes map load modules invoked by the program with the associated maps named in the table.

Associating Alternative Map Tables with Users

An alternative map table can be associated with a user with the MAPTYPE parameter of a user profile. When the user signs on to DC/UCF, the system automatically accesses the associated alternative map table.

For more information about user profiles, see the CA IDMS Security Administration Guide.
