Planning CA-PanAPT Security

When establishing CA‑PanAPT security, you determine who performs CA‑PanAPT functions.

During Phases One and Two of implementation, you should change as little of the delivered security as possible. However, you should specify your own system administrators and remove System Administrator authority from *DEFAULT.

As you use the system in your own site, implementation of more sophisticated security grows naturally, instead of as a difficult obstacle to overcome before beginning. Report APCS5103‑01 lists security definitions for Activities.

As you review the CA‑PanAPT functions, decide which group or which user ID is responsible for performing each one. You can authorize *DEFAULT to perform the functions needed by the average user to minimize the volume of maintenance required.

Use the Control File Security Form in Appendix A to record your decisions. When you decide to authorize a group for a CA‑PanAPT activity, refer to report APCS5105‑01 to see the proper group name.
