Setting Up Groups and Operations Personnel

Important implementation decisions to make include what groups you want to use and what authority you want to assign to those groups. The CA PanAPT Group Set‑up Form is provided in Appendix A to help you to make and to record these decisions. Copy the provided form, and fill it out as you proceed through implementation.

This form has two columns.

The first column lists the departments, areas, or general user types at your site that will use CA PanAPT. For example, you can list the following user types:

Column two of the form contains your CA PanAPT Group Name. Write the name you give to the CA PanAPT group next to each department, area, or group that you have listed.

Given the above example, you can choose to assign the following group names:

Name of Department or Area

CA PanAPT Group Name

To print a Cross‑Reference Report listing all groups defined to CA PanAPT, users who belong to each group, and the authorized activities for each group, use JCLLIB member APJJ5105. This report can also be viewed online. Whenever you are asked to enter a CA PanAPT group name, check this report for the correct spelling. If you add another group later, run the report again to keep it current.
