IMS TM password

The IMS TM password portion of an input message is defined in the input message definition. One or more input message fields can be defined to create the IMS TM password.

Using this method of password definition allows passwords to be created from field data you enter, from data read by a 3270, SLU 2, 3770 operator identification card reader, or data from a 3270 magnetic stripe reader.

Recommendation: If you use an SLU 2 or a 3270, you can also define a specific device field as the location of the IMS TM password, but the method discussed in this topic takes precedence if both an input message field and a device field are defined.
