Change Your User Characteristics

You can establish temporary definitions for your keys and other user characteristics by issuing the /E command. Your administrator may limit which characteristics you can change with this command. (You can make permanent changes through self-maintenance. For more information, see the chapter Performing User Self-Maintenance.)

To establish temporary user characteristics

  1. Issue the /E command from the command line from the TPX main menu panel (TEN0041).

    The User Temporary Overrides panel is displayed:

                       User Temporary Overrides                                                     Panelid - TEN0049  Command ===>                                       Userid  - TPXUSER1                                                     Termid  - DXCPP34  Language:      EN                                  Date    - 01/07/03  Menu Key:      PF4                                 Time    - 16:27:07  Jump Key:      NONE  Print Key:     NONE  Command Char:  /  Command Key:   PF12/24  Security:      TPX  Invisible:     N  Do Not Disturb:N  Do Not View:   N

  2. Move the cursor to the field you want to change, using the Tab or Return key.
  3. Type the new value for the field over the old value, or press the EOF key to erase the contents of the field and then type the new value.
  4. Press PF3.

The software establishes the values you specified and returns you to the TPX main menu panel (TEN0041). The temporary definitions remain valid until you sign off the product.
