In certain cases, in-house written programs are called from standard programs as a kind of subprogram. Often, the name of the module to be executed is passed through parameters or through a DD statement. By using the Standard Programs panel, you enable the Central Component to detect user programs that are executed through a standard program. If one of the user programs has changed or was inserted, an alert entry is generated. Without the standard program information, the user program call would not be recognized and no entry would be generated.
