Example of Adding a User Record

The following example shows a User record for user ID Smith being added to the Authorization file:

SIGNON  USERID=(user ID, password)
INSERT USER					USERID=(DALLAS, SMITH) 	-
	NAME=’RB SMITH’  PASS=XYZZY 	-
	PH=’214 555-5555’  	-
	ADD USER=Y  ALTER USER=Y 	-
	READ USER=Y  REMOVE USER=Y 	-
	SUBMIT=Y 	-
	SUBMITTER.CMDS=(Y Y Y Y N Y)
SIGNOFF

In the example definition, the user Smith can perform the following functions:

  • Add users to the Authorization file
  • Update and read User records
  • Delete User records
  • Define and submit Processes for execution
  • Select, delete, flush/suspend, and change submitted Processes

In the example, Smith cannot perform the Select Statistics command on any Processes, regardless of who submitted them. Smith’s initial password is XYZZY, and Smith’s phone number is (817) 555-5555.
