If you are connecting to IBM® MQ on
Multiplatforms, and you set the XMSC_USERID property of the
connection factory, it must match the userid of the logged on user. If you do
not set these properties, the queue manager uses the userid of the logged on
user by default. If you require further connection-level authentication of individual users you can
write a client authentication exit which is configured in IBM MQ. For more information about creating a client
authentication exit, see Planning authentication for a client application.

To authenticate the user when connecting to IBM MQ for z/OS® you
need to use a security exit.
