CLIST System Task

The CLIST (command list) task executes a module of task statements. The module is called a command list module. Command list modules are often used to perform the following functions:

Set up session defaults—System administrators can define these command lists so that they are executed automatically when users sign on. Command lists invoked in this manner are identified in a profile associated with the user.
Perform commonly used operations—Application developers, for example, can execute command list modules to vary areas offline or online, set up a test environment, or define programs for execution.
