Task-Gather Information

Before you can define record elements, there are several preliminary steps you must perform. These steps are important, since the information you gather here will determine how smoothly RLP is implemented.

• Determine which of your applications would benefit from RLP.
• Meet with the programmers to gather information about the application (like FCT name, field names, positions, data types, length of field, and selection criteria).
• Become familiar with the application.
• Plan the details needed to implement RLP for this application For example, you might decide on a selection criteria that limits the user to viewing only the records within their departmental scope.
• Determine who is the administrator(s) for implementing RLP and give them MISC3(SDT) authority.
