Importing Users

When Super Natural is operating under the Natural Security system, you can use the Import User function instead of the Add User function to define users.

Note:
The Import function is only useful for users of Natural Security.

In order to import file profiles, the application SYSSN must be people-protected under Natural Security.

To import users with private files, the private files must be linked to the application SYSSN.

To import users

1. Issue the IMPORT USER name command.

   Or:
   Issue the IMPORT USER command.

   The Import User screen appears as in the following example:

   14:53 ***** Super Natural ***** 1999-05-21 DBA - Import User - SNMUI More: + User ID Private Files *_______ _ ANS _ APAXF _ AZE _ AZE1 _ AZE5 _ BBU _ BBUBAT _ BBUUSER1 _ BGW _ BKA _ BSE _ BTO _ BVUS _ CF Mark users to be imported into SYSSN Command ===> Enter-PF1---PF2---PF3---PF4---PF5---PF6---PF7---PF8---PF9---PF10--PF11--PF12--- Help Exit Flip + Canc

   The screen lists the users defined under Natural Security and displays the number of private files for each user.

   If you specified a user name, the list starts from that name.

   Natural Security users of the types Terminal and Group are not listed.

2. Mark the users to be imported.

3. Press Enter.

   The users' private files are added/linked automatically, if they are not yet defined to Super Natural.

   Users already defined to Super Natural are shown on the list, but cannot be marked.

Importing Files

When Super Natural is operating under the Natural Security system, you can use the Import File function instead of the Add File function to define users. You can import both private and public files.

Notes:

1. The Import function is only available for users of Natural Security.
2. In order to import file profiles, the application SYSSN must be people-protected under Natural Security. Private files must be linked to the application SYSSN.

To import a file

1. Issue the IMPORT FILE name command.

   Or:
   Issue the IMPORT FILE command.

   The Import File > Private screen appears as in the following example:

   14:54 ***** Super Natural ***** 1999-05-21 DBA - Import File >Private - SNMFI File Name Type *_______________________________ _ CO-AGREEMENT Priv _ COMMAND-SSZ Priv _ UF-SEK-BSP51 Priv _ UF-SEK-BSP6 Priv _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ >Public Mark files to be imported to SYSSN Command ===> Enter-PF1---PF2---PF3---PF4---PF5---PF6---PF7---PF8---PF9---PF10--PF11--PF12--- Help Exit Flip + Canc

   The screen lists the private files that are already linked to the application SYSSN.

   Files already defined to Super Natural are shown on the list, but cannot be marked.

2. If you want to import a public file, issue the >PUBLIC command.

   The Import File >Public screen appears. The screen lists the public files that are already linked to the application SYSSN. Files already defined to Super Natural are shown on the list, but cannot be marked.

3. Select the file(s) to be imported.

   The file(s) have been imported to SYSSN.

5. Press Exit to enter the File List and select the desired File.

6. Press Enter.

7. Modify the file options as described in the section Files earlier in this documentation if required.

Modifying Multiple Users

You use the Modify Multiple Users function (called Mass Change in previous versions of Super Natural ) to unify the options of multiple (or all) users.

To modify multiple users

1. Issue the MULTIMOD command.

   The Modify Multiple Users window appears:

   11:08 ***** Super Natural ***** 1999-05-24 - Special Services Menu - SNM14 +---------Modify Multiple Users---------+ ! ! IM USER Import Users ! Enter a user ID to get the options of !

   Marked users are modified when you do one of the following:

   • Issue a paging command.

   • Press Enter.

   • Press PF3.

Layout Standard Title

You use the Layout Standard Title function to edit the standard Title element which is generated for all reports at your site. For example, you may want the name of the company to appear at the top of all reports. Users can edit the Title element in each report.

Editing the Layout Standard Title Element

To edit the standard Title layout element

1. Issue the TITLE command.

   The Layout Editor appears with the Standard Title element currently defined at your site in the editor area.

2. Edit the Standard Title as described in the section Natural Report Manager in the User's Guide.

Super Natural provides the following default Standard Title element:

System Variables

The Natural system variables available in Super Natural are listed in the Transaction Fields section of the split-screen Layout Editor. For further information on system variables, see System Variables in the User's Guide.

S Lines

The S lines are a placeholder for up to 5 lines of selection criteria. Each S line contains 60 Ss. If you either add or erase Ss from the S lines, the Ss are interpreted as text. You can edit the S lines if you wish, for example, you can move them two lines down and enter text above them.

Deleting the Standard Title

You can delete the contents of the Standard Title member in the Super Natural Administration application. The next time you choose Layout Standard Title from the Special Services menu, the Layout Standard Title window appears where you can choose between editing the empty Standard Title and regenerating the Super Natural default Standard Title.

You can delete the Standard Title member in SYSSN, however it is regenerated the next time a layout is generated for a transaction.

JCL Members

You use the JCL Members function to maintain JCL members using the Natural LIST command. By default, each JCL member is stored in library ZJCL. Choosing JCL Members from the Special Services menu is the same as issuing the following Natural commands:

LOGON LIBRARY ZJCL
LIST *

A user can only have access to one JCL at a time. However, you may create several JCLs in the library ZJCL. You can change user access to JCLs as necessary using user options.

You can perform the following commands on JCL members:

Although other commands are available using the Natural LIST command, these are the only commands necessary for JCL member administration.

For further information on using Super Natural in Batch Mode, see Batch Processing.

The library ZJCL should only be used for storing JCL members.

Invoking the JCL Members Function

To invoke the JCL Members function

• Issue the JCL command.

  You have now accessed the Natural LIST command. The Natural LIST COMMAND LIST P * screen appears as in the following example:
