This document covers the following topics:
Add a nickname for an address at an external node. This subprogram also applies to an external node which uses the transport service.
This subprogram does not apply to an internal Con-nect address. To add a nickname for an internal Con-nect address, you must use Z-ADD01B.
If you know the Node-name, but do not know the physical address of the external node (Node-parameters) which has been defined by the administrator, you can invoke Z-GET74 prior to Z-ADD01T to obtain the physical address information.
This subprogram does not check whether the information you specify in the Node-parameters corresponds to the information which has been defined by the administrator. Thus, you can specify different address information in the Node-parameters. However, it is your responsibility to specify the correct information.
The parameters Last-name and First-name can be specified for a specific user at the transport service node. When you are an administrator and add a nickname in cabinet SYSCNT, this information can later be used by all local users in the address management system.

| Description | A60/1:4 | O | A brief description for the nickname. | |
| Folder-name | A15 | O | The folder in which the nickname is to be stored. You must not specify a TRS folder or system folder (except Work). Default: Work. | |

| Node-name | A8 | R | The name of an existing transport service node which has been added by the administrator. | |
| Node-parameters | A250/1:7 | R | The physical address of the transport service node. See External Communication. | |
| Post-flag | A1 | O | Default: blank. Marking this flag is only useful, if you send mail using the online Con-nect.
